I was very happy about my development on this course… often as teachers we do not pay attention to detail, but because of Basic Concepts I was aware of the lack of language use in my class. I am now using a different approach with my learners and being aware of the small details that make a big change in the way I teach and learners learn. Thank you for this eye opening course.

‘BCP is foundational to a child's learning. It is the building blocks on which all other concepts are built. A concept needs to be fully understood by a child before a new concept can be taught. We often rush children's learning due to time constraints which is not correct.’ (KIDZPOSITIVE, Occupational Therapist, 2011)

Teacher Feedback

The BCP focuses on the learner… where the teacher acts as a mediator, prompts to access logical thinking and develops language.

Basic Concepts are the building blocks on which cognition and perception is built.

‘I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop as I was given the opportunity to work with learners … while being guided. The trainer demonstrations with the learners were an excellent idea. This workshop has been a success as I can now see what our learners lack. It made a lot of sense.’ (Metro South, 2009)

Teacher Training

The training was very effective and informative … and gave us insight into how to teach and develop language. I wish there could be more of such training to develop ourselves further.
