A course for teachers who desire a better understanding and support for children who are in need of help.
Content of the training
The attention of teachers should not be limited to the intellectual aspects of a child’s development. A child, like every human being, is a physical, cognitive, emotional and social being. The course shows teachers that teaching is more effective and guidance more fruitful when they are able to understand a child in all aspects of the child’s life: their family background, the way the child relates to others, their fears and their ambitions. The course will stimulate the teacher to look beyond his/her experience and daily routines, when children are facing complex problems. To do this, a method of systematic reflection on children’s problems at school is presented. The main tool in this reflection is the so-called ‘step-by-step model’. This model offers teachers a rich recourse for analyzing children’s problems and analyzing their own way of thinking and acting critically.
Revenues

- New insights into his/her own way of analyzing children’s problems and his/her own behavior.
