Jaspreen Kaur

Primary Programme

Trained and experienced in the field of language learning & development, Jaspreen discovered storytelling and play as magical ways to create ‘special occasions’ in the lives of children. She believes that stories help to heal and celebrate, while ‘play’ is a cathartic experience that frees them to express themselves in their individual styles. These are the gifts she intends to offer in a child’s journey of language learning.

At Vedanya, she provides opportunities for language learning and expression through stories, music and movement, games and more.
