The workshop that worked for me

The therapeutic use of poerty
This workshop focused on the use of poetry as a way for people to have an emotional outlet. This powerful workshop discussed poetry as a way for students to express what they are feeling and an opportunity for the educator to gain insight to the student and their way of thinking. Poetry in this fashion is about releasing emotions and expressing oneself. This focuses less on grammatical structure and following the rules of poetry. Therapeutic poetry provides a way for students to 'speak' freely and start an understanding and hopefully a relationship between teacher and student.
