The sessions were clear, informative, exciting, well presented, practical, logical and relevant to the context of teaching young learners.

'I can actually see results from using some of the ideas I got during the training.'

 

Central Training 2012

I was very happy about my development on this course… often as teachers we do not pay attention to detail, but because of Basic Concepts I was aware of the lack of language use in my class. I am now using a different approach with my learners and being aware of the small details that make a big change in the way I teach and learners learn. Thank you for this eye opening course.

I love the programme. I was not aware of how to introduce a concept … . If I could reverse my years in teaching, I bet I would have produced mathematicians, scientists and doctors.

Metro Central Teacher Comment (July, 2013)

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.

Christel House Training, July 2014

Good work, keep it up and do the same for my colleagues. This work could help save the children of South Africa … and give them hope for a better future.
