“I thought Step Afrika was fantastic and gave my students an opportunity to see something they hadn’t before, and now want to potentially try when they’re older.”
Kristina- 6th Grade Teacher, Dayton, OH
“Even though persons of color are only about 25% of my school population, I LOVED that I had a performance where the performers looked like those students. It was a good learning experience for all!”
M. Forshaw- Elementary School Teacher, Kettering, OH
“We thoroughly enjoyed the 5-day Step Afrika program. Breaking it down over five days made the content far more digestible for my students and for days after I could hear them shout, ‘Brothers and Sisters, Yes!’ - a total sign of how much they enjoyed the series.”
K. Kohler-Tibuni, Homeschool Parent, Dayton, OH
“The students loved every performance and they made sure to ask our principal if he had ever heard of Step Afrika. They followed up by showing him a few of the moves they learned.”
J. Pour – Elementary School Teacher, Troy, OH
“The kids really loved the videos. I found the explanation of words like fraternity, sorority, and polyrhythmic very beneficial - exposing them to rich vocabulary. I also loved the fact that the video stressed how the music came from college campuses - showing students how college can provide a wide range of great experiences. They all loved the gum boots video!”
T. Javaloyes - 4th Grade Teacher, Boston Public Schools
