Instructor
Diane Walters MA, has 36+ years of experience in Waldorf, outdoor educational programs and alternative Educational platforms. Her work is deeply informed by her life-long interest in education through the lens of Steiner’s educational philosophy, contemporary educators, and futurists who believe in the essential nature of a human centered approach to education. She offers parent and faculty talks, webinars, and online participatory sessions to develop a greater understanding of what makes us human, how we learn, and how we teach, whatever the subject, the system, and the environment. This is the first of several online courses under Trade Secrets.
I started my career as a teacher and am finishing it by working with traumatized and socially alienated children. The Impact of Teaching through Story resonated with me because it lights the way to reaching out to all children through story to create a learning community of inclusion and belonging. I would highly recommend this course to ANYONE WHO WORKS WITH CHILDREN. The course videos and exercises are inspiring; trade secrets are illustrated with wonderful anecdotes and the work is meticulously referenced. Diane Walters truly enlivened my learning through story and the depth of her experience which she shares so generously.

I am lucky to have had Diane Walters guide me on how to tell a story. I used to strive for precision in storytelling, but Diane taught me how to make the story my own. This changed the way I told a story, making it relaxed and enjoyable. Diane’s online course The Impact of Teaching through Story, Inclusion and Diversity allows teachers to experience the magic themselves.
