It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.
Christel House Training, July 2014
The emphasis on language throughout the programme helps to develop learners' understanding of concepts and expand their vocabulary. The BCP stops learners from guessing, it gives them more structure and develops their cognitive functioning.
Metro Central Teacher Comment (July 2013)
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.

We were taught the theory as well as the practice. I now feel confident to start to implement the programme with my class and even with my nieces and nephews.
