What do our clients feel?

"Dear Helen, I like that your workshops are a mixture of individual, small group and whole group learning, and they are never boring. You get us active! Even the “experts” learn new things in your workshops. As a consultant, you are always ready with helpful, practical, solution-oriented advice and always loads of encouragement."

Lisa Thom, PYP Coordinator at Surabaya International School, Indonesia

"Helen, it is the fourth workshop I have attended since we became a candidate school and I found it the most relevant and meaningful. You really concentrated on the staff, took them where they were at and then showed them possible areas for improvement while at the same time staying true to the content that the workshop was designed to cover. That is not an easy task but you made it look very easy."

John Murphy, Principal, Osaka YMCA International School, Japan

"Thank you, Andrew. The teachers really enjoyed your presentation, especially the interactive aspects of practically working out what was being communicated."

Wade Johnson, Principal, Mutiara Nusanatara International School, Bandung, Indonesia

Workshops are conducted using strategies that participants can use in their own classrooms, schools and/or homes.

Workshops can be tailored to the needs of the school. The best professional development allows time for teachers to reflect. Short, regular workshops, with on-line support are the most effective way for improving teaching and learning.

Effective professional development is on site, on-going and directly related to classroom practice

 

Collaboration is essential in planning for effective learning

Workshop participants demonstrate their learning to the whole group
