Teacher Tom E-Course
The Technology Of Speaking With Children
In a very real sense, the language we use creates reality. Teacher Tom shares how the specific words we use, and how and when we use them, shape our individual experiences.
Participants learn to honor children without commanding or bossing them; to use words that create a world of facts and intrinsic motivation; to create space in which children are enabled to do their own thinking and make their own decisions; and to support children as they learn from the natural consequences of their behaviors.
In this 6-part e-course Teacher Tom unpacks his well known approach for the first time. Discover how to fundamentally shift how you speak with the children in your preschool/pre-K classes, and at home. Earn a 3-hour PD certificate.
