The Basic Concepts Programme is basically the same as Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development. It is a way of teaching… it gives individuals a way to structure their thinking and reasoning.

I really cannot wait to start- I want all my children to be Grade 1 ready at the end of this year.

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.

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.

My concern about my learners’ language barriers and how to overcome these barriers has been solved for me.

It made me look at my teaching in a different way. I am excited to implement what I have learnt.
