Spring is in the air!

 

As the days become longer and a new season is in the air, I look back over the past few months. Since May I taught the Sophakama Tutor training four times. Three of these were for different Institutions in Jeffreys Bay (Jbay Academy, Jeffreys Bay Comprehensive High School, LXP and Joshua Project), but one was for a lady in Zambia who is connected with FCE. I did the training through Zoom and WhatsApp and it worked really well. Now that I know that it is possible, I am feeling confident to do it again. Truth is, I have already, but only the Maths part via WhatsApp two weeks ago and that also turned out well.

Our Application to accredit our training as a NQF4 Full program is in the process and it is a big learning curve for all of us that is involved in that process.

May this Spring bring a lot of beauty to your life.

Investing in Kouga once again!

 In the first quarter of 2025 I held 4 Sophakama Tutor Trainings through which I trained 17 people how to teach reading and lay a foundation in Maths for children.

The first training in January was at Graslaagte Primary school, where I trained 9 of their teacher assistants.

The next 3 trainings I trained 3 of Sea Vista School’s Tutors, a remedial teacher at a Primary School in Jeffrey’s Bay and 4 ladies from Global Challenge.

I am happy for the impact these trainings have in the community. I was also surprised when an ABC Adventure student from 2 years ago informed me that he got involved with an Aftercare center in Oester Bay and asked me to refresh his memory concerning the training material. I was happy to do that.

It seems that for this first quarter Kouga was my circle of influence.
