This workshop is one of the most beneficial workshops I have attended. The trainer’s presentation style was warm, easy to follow and understand. I like that he included practical activities, examples and demonstrations.

Die Basiese Konsepte Program het my self vertroue weer op gebou. My taal gebruik en my manier van dinge doen het ook verander. Ek is baie bly en gelukking om deel uit te maak van die Basiese Konsepte Program.

Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.

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