I am Ottó Fogarasi, social educator, based in Turin, Italy.

I empower groups and individuals to reach their potential. My clients are mainly schools/teachers; the nonprofit sector/social workers and socially-environmentally conscious public or private entities, as well as adolescents/young adults.

My focus is on the development of so-called social skills or life skills like cooperation, decision-making, planning, self-management… My method is experiential learning - in a safe-to-fail environment - with a strong emphasis on self-reflection and raising your awareness, and my main tools are board games and cohesion / team-building games.

My services are usually tailor-made according to your needs. Most of them can be done in 2 hours or more days – of course the more time I have the more I can give. Some are available online as well.

There is a strong connection between all my services: they all support self-determination and active participation and they operate on a voluntary basis - values that are highly important to me.

A first talk - a personalized discussion where you describe your situation, we define your needs and the framework of our collaboration - is free, so don’t be afraid to ask for information!

Play - according to Johan Huizinga - precedes culture, while games stimulate our cognitive and emotional segments... So I’ll see you where instinct and intellect meet!
