Study Gym What We Do

Workshops for Teachers and Trainers

  

 

When teaching it is essential that recognition is given to how students learn, and to adopt appropriate teaching methods to encourage and develop the learning strategies of pupils. 

  

At Study Gym we apply these principles when acting as facilitators at our workshops. The aim is to encourage professionals to become aware of, and use their students’ present knowledge and skills, and to transfer this learning to new situations and to explore new ideas from this secure position.
