Testimonials

Personally the training has given me a greater understanding and recognition of children who have motor coordination difficulties and what they face. When you know what they (and the parents) are facing it gives you a better basis on how to help them and ensure a more positive outcome. The training has also helped in the various strategies that can be implemented within the school setting. The notes are something I can refer to which is also a great help. I have found this training very interesting and informative.
I have a better understanding and will be more aware . The SMART targets for me needed to be smaller goals so tried to adapt which was helpful.

Teaching Assistant

Vision Impairment

Before I took this training, I have no confidence to identify correctly the students with behaviour difficulties. This training gave me knowledge about how to understand the behaviours and how to support the students with difficult behaviours. Not only for the students, but this course also gave me knowledge about how to be a supportive teacher, how to handle the class (class management knowledge). The tutor I met was very patient too. When we had a face-to-face sessions, he gave very effective suggestions and was so helpful for my overall learning.
I enjoyed the course; I did have some understanding about deafness before I started the course. I will now use my new knowledge and pass this on to my colleagues, so we can all help our pupil to become more independent in her school and personal life.
