Workshop 1: Putting
it all Together: Learning Skills for Children
One of the most precious gifts
we can give our children is to help them learn how to learn and
enjoy it. The LEARN TO LEARN programme is a fascinating self-discovery
fun adventure, enabling children to find their own, unique, most
effective and most enjoyable ways of learning. We work towards
that goal by:
- showing children how to
like themselves, how to find trust and joy in their uniqueness,
and how to improve their self-confidence,
- helping them learn how to
relax and get rid of unwanted stress,
- practising with them the
ways of focusing attention,
- presenting them with a selection
of wonderfully effective learning techniques.
Parents who come to the workshop
will find out
- how to determine what type
of learner their child is,
- what to do to enhance their
child's self-esteem,
- how to teach their child
to relax,
- what to do to help increase
their child's attention span,
- what learning tools their
child could use to learn effectively and have fun!!!
Workshop 2: For You,
Dear Teacher
As teachers, we are always
looking for ways of making our work more effective.
While we concentrate all our efforts
on caring for others, we tend to neglect ourselves in the process.
We forget that we are not the role we play in life but people
in our own right. It sounds obvious, but is it?!É
This workshop will remind us
- that we are people in our own
right, NOT our role;
- that WE have needs that matter
as much as other people's needs;
- that we need to develop and
protect OUR sense of self-worth,
- that it is necessary to take
care of OUR learning, growth and self-development,
- that WE can develop a set of
handy tools which will HELP US live better lives,
- that in order to LIVE (not
survive life) we have to make work fun for ourselves,
- and that teaching is THE MOST
WONDERFUL AND MOST IMPORTANT PROFESSION even when we don't feel
that way!
