The Thinking Partnership Teachers Course
COURSE INFO
‘I never teach my pupils; I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn.’
Albert Einstein
Teaching others how to be Thinking Partners is a profound and radical experience. The impact it has on their understanding of independent thinking, on their work, on their relationships, on their lives as they learn how to listen to ignite someone else's thinking, and just how far others can go in their own thinking too. On completion of the Coaching Course, this 6 day online course will teach you how to teach others the Thinking Partnership Session so that they can experience truly independent thinking themselves and offer this beautiful opportunity to other people. On the course, we go into more depth on the Thinking Partnership Session and the building of Incisive Questions™, and as part of the Practicum you deliver the Thinking Partnership Course to others. Successfully completing that work, and already being a member of the Time to Think Collegiate, you would be qualified as a Time to Think Thinking Partnership Teacher.
Of benefit to anyone wishing to teach others this powerful framework, the group is limited to just four people to ensure maximum depth and learning.
DATES & BOOKING
The next course dates are:
17th, 18th and 19th January, and 14th, 15th and 16th February 2023
