This FREE Teacher Led Tutorial for the Connecting Through Talk Series (Courses 1, 2 and 3) incorporates a blend of face to face teacher time and group activities. You will progress through the three Connecting Through Talk courses in a class of like-minded peers interested in social learning and peer support while being guided by me as your teacher. In addition, you have the opportunity to meet each other and practice together using your new language skills.
The Teacher Led Tutorials will introduce the framework of compassionate communication, based on the work of Dr. Marshall Rosenberg in Nonviolent Communication (NVC). It covers the full set of learning outcomes of the three Connecting Through Talk courses.
It’s about communicating in the best way to connect with another person, honouring and holding their needs and yours in mutual regard. It’s designed for people of all ages who are wanting to improve their communication with family, friends and colleagues.
If you deal with people and need to enable cooperation and collaboration, then this course provides a simple, but effective framework.
