Developing Personal Learning and Thinking Skills with Students

Reasons for attending this programme:

There is an increased focus on personal and learning related skills on many curriculum programmes particularly for students on higher level courses. This requires teachers to be able to teach a range of skills which have not been taught explicitly in the past. To ensure these crucial skills are developed, teachers need to deliver the principal learning in creative ways to ensure relevancy for the students. Through this process teachers can create the appropriate state of mind necessary for a particular type of thinking or learning.
Creative and reflective thinkers need to utilise the imagination to synthesise learning. Independent enquirers and self-managers need to set realistic goals, prepare, and create imaginative solutions. Team workers and effective participators require high empathic responses and interpersonal skills to gain the best from themselves and others.

The magic was in the group brought together by Kate Julie and Owen. You miss a great opportunity if you don’t enter this course. The most magic was the potatoes! Changing belief systems in a split second. Keep up the outstanding work Thank you
Jos Frederiks NLP Trainer

This course has been worth every penny. Fast doesn’t mean lacking in quality. The sheer tonnage of information is astonishing. It’s so worth it. You will learn a lot even if you are a very experienced teacher and you will enjoy it
Dr Sharon Ney

It doesn’t matter how experience you are, go for it. The training was the most magic. Teaching must go over to learning and we in school have to take responsibility for that. I will use this in my work as a consultant helping schools to improve. Many many thanks for a great course.
Anita Svennson,Swedish Educational consultant

This course helped me widen my ideas about teaching and learning. It prompted lots of questions about how we should approach learning. Experiential learning is profound and fun. Thank you
David Hicks,Music Teacher

I thought I knew how to design a course. After attending this training it’s totally changed my view about learning design. If you are a teacher this course is mandatory for your career.
Natthapatch Danbenchaphan,Head of Language School,Thailand

I may wobble but I move forward with a giggle into all that is possible. The course has accelerated my own slow and steady learning into the amazing and continued possibility of learning
Vicky Morgan,College lecturer

This was loads of fun and I loved it. Fun and interactive ways of learning and how to apply that to teaching. Some may think that its only for teachers but we are all teachers in different areas. This course totally surpassed my expectations and all my goals were achieved. Creative teaching makes you want to teach. I highly recommend it so that more good teachers equal more confident kids. Just do it!
