University of Cape Town Accreditation:

Participants may want to apply for official accredition for attending the training. The Basic Concepts Programme is registered as a short course at UCT.

What I understand about the Basic Concepts Programme is that it is very useful in all subjects. I must implement it in every lesson. I must also try to be as accurate and precise as possible when teaching.

I realize that children need to know their basic concepts so that they can develop understanding of the content of the curriculum.

Practical demonstration of mediation. Louis is an excellent mediator and it really helped to see it demonstrated. Loved the dedication, enthusiasm and firm belief in worth of BC approach to learning. I really think you opened our eyes to new methods of promoting learning and especially development of language.

Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.
