I love the programme. I was not aware of how to introduce a concept … . If I could reverse my years in teaching, I bet I would have produced mathematicians, scientists and doctors.

Basic Concepts are the building blocks on which cognition and perception is built.

I am extremely grateful for being exposed to this programme … I'm always worried about those learners who are not progressing. The programme can support these learners in order to lay the foundation for academic progress. Practically my whole class needs this Foundation!!! How can I start with formal teaching if they do not know their Basics.

Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.

What stood out for me - was not teaching the content, but how to teach the concept and so much vocabulary is elicited …
