The course was very helpful to me as a teacher, excellent and exciting, because it opened my mind … how to integrate basic concept in all learning areas. It also showed that children should not be limited and their understanding should be developed step-by-step.

The Basic Concepts Programme is basically the same as Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development. It is a way of teaching… it gives individuals a way to structure their thinking and reasoning.

Teacher Feedback

I realized that if one lays down a solid foundation for your learners they will become self-assured and confident human beings.

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