Ikwezi Teacher Training, Cape Town, 2010-2012

Saturday, January 21, 2012 - 00:00
Training Session 1

Part of the Project

Ikwezi Project

Teacher training over the years (2010-2012) has been hands-on and engaging. Teachers have become familiar with the BCP training motto: "Show one, do one!"

 Some comments from teachers after completing training in 2010:-

'We need to give them (the learners) an opportunity to teach us e.g. ask questions in order for you to know how much the kids know. By doing that you are engaging them (the learners)… you are giving them an opportunity to speak.'

'The Basic Concepts is a way to … help children and not teach them … so that they can think and know the meaning.'

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

Now I can help the learners from our poorer areas to verbalize for themselves…  they are becoming more confident and starting to love their educational journey.

This was a fruitful, educational, informative, empowering, enjoyable, helpful, superb, well-planned, and inspiring experience.

Training was out of this world. I would definitely recommend this training to everyone ...

Christel House Training, July 2014

I really cannot wait to start- I want all my children to be Grade 1 ready at the end of this year.

The workshop helped me to understand how to work with the children in the classroom. I also learnt how to ask open-ended questions that will encourage my learners to think and to ask more questions.
