Learn a revolutionary new way of teaching! Apply the principles of permaculture to the teaching of permaculture. In this fun, interactive class you will learn powerful techniques gleaned from the wisdom of experienced teachers from around the globe.
What’s special about this Permaculture Teacher Training Course?
We will cover every aspect of being an exciting and effective permaculture educator.
Some of what you will learn:
--Building confidence through practice and supportive critique. Everyone will have several opportunities to teach in this workshop, to see themselves on film and improve in a supportive environment.
--Teaching methods that work - you will learn at least 5 new teaching techniques, and will develop new creative ideas of your own! These innovative teaching methods work, and they teach permaculture while modeling permaculture principles.
--A simple technique to help you prepare quickly and thoroughly. We will cover the preparation techniques that professional teachers and consultants use to quickly organize their thoughts and materials.
