Helen Hooper Email and Phone Number
Senior learning designer with a particular passion for experiential learning (or learning through doing). I have previously founded two award-winning small businesses and I Iove creating engaging learning experiences that make an impact.I get my energy from people and enjoy facilitating live training but also enjoy the creativity of harnessing technology (be it virtual reality, artificial intelligence or interactive video) to improve lives in the real world. For me, learning comes first though and I firmly believe in using technology as an enabler and not as an end in itself.I'm a storyteller and script-writer and I'm confident in presenting, filming and editing videos and voice-overs.In my spare time I write children's picture books supported by educational content that enables children to engage actively with the stories and characters - properly absorbing new vocabulary through physical movement and vocalisation. You can access some of my stories on my website www.animateys.com
