TEACHER EFFECTIVENESS TRAINING
What makes the difference between teaching that works and teaching that fails? We believe that the factor that contributes the most is the quality of the teacher-learner relationship. It’s more important than what the teacher is teaching or who the teacher is trying to teach.
Teacher Effectiveness Training (T.E.T.) can help educators optimise their teaching skills.
T.E.T. is a unique and fun teacher’s course created by award-winning psychologist Dr Thomas Gordon, a three-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee.
Our goal is to teach educators very practical communication and conflict resolution skills to help them have high-quality relationships with their students so there will be less conflict and more teaching-learning time.
THE SKILLS TEACHERS WILL LEARN
How you can talk so that learners will listen.
How to set classroom rules so that far less enforcement is necessary.
How to handle discipline problems so that you get relief without damaging the learner’s self-esteem.
How to avoid problems of permissiveness and still have creative classrooms that encourage student participation.
How to resolve conflicts so that both you and the learners are satisfied with the solutions.
HOW YOUR CLASSROOM WILL BENEFIT
Fewer classroom disruptions and conflicts.
Fewer discipline problems.
More desire to cooperate and learn.
Increased ability to work in group situations.
