Feedback : Relief- Insight Workshop June 2012

Yet another wonderful group of teachers are buzzing post the June workshop of 2012. I am always so pleased to have been part of the learning journey and make a difference in the life of both the teacher and the student. The majority of the the participants at this Winter workshop are student teachers and therefore many of the strategies will be directly used back into the current teaching practicum.

"Thank you so much...I have been waiting for some practical ideas like this for 4 years at uni." (Stacey)

"Fantastic! Thank you for passing on your years of experience and successful tricks of the trade. These ideas will certainly give me confidence during my practicum in Semester 2. "  (Bronwyn)

"So many different ideas for me to experiment with while on prac....then I can see what works for me! I loved the way we had the workbooks with us from the beginning. It was so easy to follow along, understand and make notes as you spoke." (Rania)


As well as the fresh young students there was a wonderful sprinkling of seasoned Relief Teachers. How I wish I could just have a room full of one kind of audience but the mix makes for interesting questions!
Once again I am extremely pleased when my experienced colleagues also find these workshops such good value. Their kind words in the form of feedback makes all the difference.

"Fantastic! Covered so many things that i can't wait to try. A great variety of content that I felt was very useful to me as a relief teacher. Please DON"T give up doing this for people like me!" (Simone)  

"Content: Live-giving,enriching,and entertaining! Talk about value for money...your enthusiasm and energy is catching. Thank you" (Anne)

I am so pleased that this work can make a difference.

As I always say it is not WHAT you will teach ...content is easy....it is all about HOW. Understanding the individual and the way they learn best is the key to good teaching practice. I can't read enough about the brain and how we are all individually wired. Now that Dyslexia is not a prohibited word I think that we will be seeing so much more about best inclusive practice that really works for today's 21st century student.

Live.laugh and learn everyday!

Relief Insight Workshop Sunday 3rd of June

Opps can't believe the last post was back in February. So many interesting things have been happening since then! I spoke at ACU and now the time is right for the next workshop. In consideration of the feedback, we are trying a Sunday time slot to decide if this is better for young students and busy parents. I am a church goer but I am happy to work around that commitment
if this time is convenient to most people. The most important thing is that the lovely coffee shop is still open on a Sunday morning and providing the weather is kind to us the morning tea break with a good coffee gives us all the energy to get through the second session. There is lots of learning and lots of laughs as i do get you to be interactive. Nothing too threatening....it just makes the classroom strategies come alive. Surprisingly the time flies and you leave with lots of new network contacts, clear ideas about the world of relief teaching and fresh exciting strategies to try out as soon as you can get your hands on some willing students!

 Details are all one this flier or email me directly with any other enquires.

Look forward to hearing from you.
