Course Summary

This course is designed to help you understand more about how your students learn. The course will bring you into contact with recent thinking and approaches to teaching related to Multiple Intelligences and NLP.

During the course, you will become familiar with different learning styles and learn how to recognise them in yourself and your students and adapt your teaching to accommodate them. The course will also help you reflect on creating a successful climate for learning - which, in turn, will enhance your own enjoyment of teaching.

What are the key course contents?
Materials will be created for the group by the main trainer, supplemented by published materials and by work presented by the participants themselves.

  Topics include:

Contacting and using the brain’s potential more fully.
The concept of ‘understanding’ and how we can teach for ‘understanding’

Raising student self-esteem
The artful use of the metaphor
Portfolio evaluation as a means of testing genuine understanding
