Creative education, training by practice.

Offering engaging learning experiences by creating real-life scenario

without the real-life consequences.

Tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember, involve me and I will learn.

KIA ORA, NAU MAI to the website of Yentl & co!

Yentl because that’s me, and Co because I barely ever work alone. Together with trainers, actors

and pioneers in creative education, I aim to create engaging learning experiences. Focussing on

self-development by understanding, exploring and practising, in form of actions (not just words).

Using drama-based activities such as games, role play, simulation and real-life scenarios to train

specific communication skills.


Please take a look around, browse through the training we offer and feel free to contact me with

any questions. I'd love to work together.


What we offer

Working with drama-based activities and professional actors gives heaps of training possibilities.


All with one thing in common:

they start with you… 


Client Testimonials:

A few weeks after attending the communication training "dealing with suicide attempts", a similar scenario occurs… I can honestly say that the "damage-free practice", as Yentl calls it, has contributed to a good outcome.

Client Testimonials:

I already knew a lot that Yentl taught me but it was great to practise, among kids like myself.

Client Testimonials:

Our daughter always told me quite summarily about the training: "I just practise what I have difficulties in". But, early on in the learning process, I saw positive changes in her being and behaviour, at home, at school and with her friends. And in the following weeks, I only saw her grow more...

Client Testimonials:

The actors are truthful, they do not exaggerate but act as close to reality as possible.

Very impressive and effective way of learning.

participant Human Relation Training

Client Testimonials:

Having the opportunity to implement my own specific learning request felt great. I got to practise what I struggled with on regular bases and was given useful (and sometimes unexpected) tools to handle this.

Client Testimonials:

After following a Team Building Training, the division of tasks was redesigned by the team itself on the basis of qualities and challenges. As a result, everyone worked more to their own strengths and potential, which clearly had a positive effect on the team's work.
