Well, we are nearly finished with the first 3 weeks of the training program. This is exciting because the theory (classroom) part is over and now we will get out into the real world and teach people.
Some of the special characteristics of this particular program:
– of 9 participants and 9 staff, we represent 9 different countries (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, Canada) – wow!
– many of us went to see a ballet in Kyiv, perhaps you’ve heard of the Vienna Waltz
– of 15 class days, 7 of them were spent without electricity in the classroom, this also meant no hot water… (thus the title: Titus Survivor)
– this is the first ever Titus Project to run in Kyiv, Ukraine – also, it is the first ever Russian program to run! YAY!
It has been a great training time – as a group we’ve learned the core elements of teaching, had opportunities to practice, been encouraged, critiqued so we improve… let’s go out and do it!
