Methods


I think it's important that I use a number of different methods facilitate your learning, so on the course there will be:

  • Demonstrations
  • Feedback sessions
  • Pairwork
  • Non-verbal group exercises
  • Explanations
  • Group sessions
  • Group discussion
  • Some reading outside the course days

I will ask participants to each have a review partner: you'll be asked to have a couple of phone calls with each other during the time between the two weekends to discuss how you are getting on with the course.

Also between the two taught weekends you will be asked to do three co-counselling sessions. You will get assistance from me in arranging this.
