‘The trainer was very good and it was refreshing to be part of a workshop that can actually make a difference in the lives and minds of learners.’ (Metro North, 2010)

Teacher Feedback

Basic concept is about improving teaching methods, language and the learning processes of our learners.

Thinking Stars: Teacher Feedback From Training, August 2014

I have learned so much through the Kwena Basic Education Trust and for that I would like to take this opportunity to say: thank you.

Kwena Basin Education Trust: Project Visit, May 2016

Practical, useful, clear, scaffolded for use in the classroom. Very approachable lecturer and lessening of anxiety through post-workshop contact.

Open Public Training, 2015 (Cape Town)

Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.
