Engaging in field trips has made teaching easier and comprehension better among students, a teacher at Brook Stone International Schools, Mrs Tonia Obiazi, has confirmed.
Mrs Obiazi said this during a recent field trip with the pupils to an art gallery, Explicit Art World in Egbeda.

Pupils of Brook Stone International Schools being taught the rudiments of painting at Explicit Art WorldMrs Obiazi told AlimoshoToday: "We are actually teaching on painting. My school, whatever we teach, we like the children to see the real-life situation, so we brought them here to this art gallery to see some of the paintings that have been done,
"It has been effective for the kids a whole lot. When they got here, they said they have seen these a whole lot on the road but they have never had it this way, so this is bringing teachings in class to reality.
"Some of them have interest in Arts before, but today, the interest has increased.
