Effective teaching workshop

Rawalpindi: A two-day training session on Effective Teaching and Learning was held recently at SLS Montessori & High School, says a press release.

The session moderator was Tayyaba Aquil, CEO of Beyond Knowledge and an eminent education consultant with over 20 years of experience in the education sector. All principals, section heads and Montessori directresses attended the session along with some personnel from the SLS Head Office who are a part of curriculum development and policy implementation.

The two day session started off by identifying what makes an effective teacher and ended by discussing how to ensure that children remain good learners. Group and individual discussions and presentations were held which enhanced the learning curve for all participants. The Heads and coordinators present in the session participated wholeheartedly in all the tasks assigned to them and these tasks essentially conveyed the message of each session very effectively. Through various scenarios presented in videos and role enactments; participants were asked to question their reactions and if/how they needed to modify them to cater to their students.

The second day of the session helped the participants to identify the traits which help children become good learners and what kind methodologies could be implemented to ensure this. The workshop ended with a simple but happy certification ceremony. SLS Schools Managing Director Asiya Talha thanked Tayyaba Aquil for sharing her experiences and knowledge.
