The BCP focuses on the learner… where the teacher acts as a mediator, prompts to access logical thinking and develops language.

Very informative. Well planned. Well organised. Based on CAPS. Good intervention programme.

The workshop was very educative and an eye-opener. These are things that we usually just take for-granted.

Thank you Louis for you dedication and enthusiasm. We need our teachers to be enthused with a love of children and a passion for mediating to our learners. God Bless.

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.
