Course Description
'Relatedness' involves connectivity, authenticity, trust, respect, compassion and nurture. For those of you who are struggling to connect in a real way with your students, this course is for you. Too many teachers jump straight into curriculum worried that this is all that matters and that time is of the essence. Wrong! What matters is WHO your students are, HOW you work with your students and WHY you are doing this in the first place.
This course will look at workable and straightforward ways to connect with all of your students. It is essential that your students feel a sense of belonging in your classroom; that the 'magic' of your classes continually lures them back and makes them want to learn and to interact with their peers and yourself.
Leanne Theodos's vast experience in several learning contexts, from Early Childhood to High School and beyond, has enabled her to become a successful practitioner; one who can not only connect with and learn about their students but enable them to have fun and success, while being comfortable and interactive in the learning and magic of the classroom.
How wonderful would it be to look forward to going to work every day? Enrol in this course and discover how it can happen...
