Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.

Teacher Feedback
I feel very strongly that Basic Concepts should be introduced to all learners- this will give me the time to develop their conceptual language and increase their vocabulary and verbal fluency.

We were taught the theory as well as the practice. I now feel confident to start to implement the programme with my class and even with my nieces and nephews.

What I understand about the Basic Concepts Programme is that it is very useful in all subjects. I must implement it in every lesson. I must also try to be as accurate and precise as possible when teaching.
The work … is certainly original, and in some important aspects constitutes a contribution to the fund of knowledge about cognitive development and early education.
