Academic Philosophy

Our academic philosophy at Baltic Playback Theater and Psychodrama School (BPTPS) is rooted in the belief that education is a transformative and empowering process. We view learning as a journey of self-discovery and growth, where individuals are encouraged to explore their creativity, develop their skills, and deepen their understanding of themselves and the world around them.

Central to our philosophy is the idea that education should be holistic and inclusive, embracing diverse perspectives and experiences. We value experiential learning, active participation, and hands-on practice as essential components of effective education. Through engaging with real-world challenges and opportunities, students gain practical skills and knowledge that they can apply in their personal and professional lives.

At BPTPS, we emphasize the importance of fostering a supportive and collaborative learning environment. We believe in the power of community and collective wisdom, where students learn from each other, share their insights, and support one another in their educational journey.

Furthermore, we are committed to promoting social justice, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of our academic programs. We recognize the importance of diversity and strive to create learning environments that respect and celebrate the unique identities and experiences of every individual.

Overall, our academic philosophy is guided by a commitment to excellence, integrity, and lifelong learning. We aspire to empower individuals to reach their full potential, make meaningful contributions to society, and create positive change in the world.
