Are you looking to give your students and in depth view of a subject with an expert?
Your class will have a one-hour private Zoom livestream with a historical character of your choice, along with back up activities for the classroom. Students get to ask questions and interact with someone from whichever period of history you choose.
For older students we can also present “out of character” if preferred. Our visitors are bonafide experts in their fields, with PhDs, published authors and qualified teachers in our ranks. You may even have seen some of our visitors on TV as “talking heads” in historical documentaries for Netflix and the BBC!
Limited to one class (approximately 30 students) to keep the capacity for interactivity high, we can tailor the workshop precisely to your requirements. We can encourage your students to ask pertinent questions and use their deductive reasoning skills to dive deeper into topics across history, literature and STEM.
Just some of the specialist sessions we can offer are:
- Victorian Women and Literature
- History of Medicine
- Witchcraft and Magic
- The British Empire, Trade and Exploration
- WW2 – the Home Front
- WW2 – Women of the SOE
- Tudor Alchemy
- Queen Elizabeth I
- Florence Nightingale
- Mary Kingsley – Victorian Adventurer
- The Golden Age of Piracy
These are just some options – we are always happy to develop new workshops and characters, so if you don’t see what you want on the website, just give us a shout!
