I realized that if one lays down a solid foundation for your learners they will become self-assured and confident human beings.

Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.

Strategies to help teachers to support learners to think, as well as thinking about how thinking occurs and what the gaps might be.

BCP Short Course, UCT (June 2013)

I am blown away!!! This is most definitely the most useful course that I have ever attended.

Overberg District, Western Cape Department of Education (February, 2019)

Before the course, I never focused on the main concepts as I never really thought them essential to "real life" as a speech-language pathologist. I now have a very different perspective on why these aspects are important and how they move cognition forward.

ZOOM TRAINING 2 FEEDBACK

I have enjoyed the BCP online training. I do think it was of great benefit as I have learned new approaches to help children learn. I also thought that BCP is also very helpful to children with difficulties as it provides them with concrete experience through manipulating the materials and being asked different questions to help them be aware of their way of thinking. Louis was very thorough and delivered the smallest details to help us understand the method. I found that very helpful and it enabled me to use it with my kids who have a difference in age and needs. I also enjoyed attending the training via Zoom as Louis was very efficient in using different features to make the training practical, fun and enjoyable.
