Exhilarating! I am so excited about it and can’t wait to implement it in my
classroom one day! It makes so much sense to me and I really believe that THRASS
is going to transform our education system! Laola was a complete breath of fresh
air and I thoroughly enjoyed her two day workshop! Thank you for all your time
and effort! I feel even more empowered as a teacher!
Very
informative and understandable! It has been broken down in detail and very
accurately so as to understand it! This new way of teaching handwriting, reading
and spelling skills is very different to the way we learned but it is a much
more useful and detailed way of learning!
An
enlightening course, much was gained! I look forward to teaching THRASS in my
own classroom one day! Wonderful resources. Fun, hard work and understandable!
Laola was
very professional and I thoroughly enjoyed her explanations and examples! The
materials received were fantastic! This course will be helpful in my teaching in
the future!
This has
been a very knowledgeable experience which every teacher would enjoy! It is
conductive to learning and uses innovative methodologies to inculcate a culture
of reading in our society! I have personally gained a lot from this experience!
Very
enlightening! It was fun, exciting and interesting. We did learn a lot and know
that this is very useful and vital information we will be using in our future
teaching careers! This is a fun programme and I can’t wait to pass what I have
learned to the younger generations.
Hugely
informative, practical and enlightening. I am very excited at the prospect of
implementing the knowledge and skills! A powerful new way to learn phonics!
Laola was excellent and very articulate and a dynamic spokesperson for the
THRASS learning programme! I do hope that THRASS will take foot nationwide in
the schools of South-Africa!
A dynamic
and insightful presentation by Laola! If only we were trained in the THRASS
programme years ago! The holistic and analytical approach of this programme
makes it a tool for success in literacy, especially in a school such as mine
where language of teaching and learning is different from the home language!
Thank you Laola for a wonderful presentation! Thank you Alan Davies for sharing
this knowledge with us! NAPTOSA KZN is proud to be a small part of promoting
this outstanding programme in KZN!
Laola was
very knowledgeable! She was patient and answered all question thoroughly! Each
stage was explained in great details including evaluation and assessment. The
workshop was also fun and entertaining, Laola’s prior knowledge and its
integration of THRASS was useful and enlightening!
Very
interesting and beneficial! It is cleverly constructed and appealing in the
sense that I will ensure teaching literacy is more effective and fun! I learned
many things and was challenged in my thinking! I feel that the children will be
receiving more from this programme!
Very
interesting. This course was interactive and helped me gain a better
understanding of what THRASS is all about! I was comfortable to ask questions,
at anytime, if I did not understand! Laola made the course fun and easy to
understand! I am now excited and looking forward to teaching THRASS! Thank you
so much for a wonderful course, I enjoyed it!
Presented
very well! Laola was very well prepared and any questions were answered clearly
and thoroughly! Very interesting but at the same time very exhausting! A few
more games or activities that are hands on would be nice! I learned a lot,
brilliant course!
Laola did a
fantastic presentation, she was vibrant and informative! I gained much insight
into using THRASS at school and I feel empowered to teach my second language
learners!
Interesting
and informative! I learned a lot about THRASS, things I did not know before
attending this course! I now feel excited about teaching THRASS!
Interesting
and interactive and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The course helped us understand
both the theory involved and how to apply it to the resources presented to us,
which are wonderful!
Very
interesting as every little piece fits into to a huge puzzle called English! It
was relevant to us as aspiring teachers. We firstly need to know the correct way
of teaching the English language and obviously speaking it! Laola was a great
presenter and teacher! It was a lot of information to digest at one ‘go’ but the
lady in charge was very understanding and fun!
Fun and
interesting! It was a very interactive course but there was too much information
to take in for the short time! If the workshop was a little longer this would
have been appreciated! The THRASS approach to teaching was very unique and
explained well!
Interesting
and I now have a greater understanding of THRASS! I am now looking forward to
teaching this when I go out to schools and also learning for myself! Thank you
to Laola for making it exciting and interesting for us!
Most helpful
to me as a practicing teacher! I really enjoyed this workshop! I know that it
will help me in the future! We as practicing teachers really needed this
introduction to THRASS!
Very
beneficial to me as an ECD/Foundation Phase student teacher! I am pleased to be
given resources needed to start me engaging in THRASS! The course was
interesting and fun!
Was very
exciting and interesting and I think it will work wonderfully with learners!
It was a
very enlightening, interesting and captivating course. I look forward to
implementing the THRASS programme once I am a full on qualified teacher!
Extremely
enlightening! I also strongly believe in not having a reading scheme! Learners
borrow books from the municipal libraries and by learning the THRASS method they
will have no learning problems. This programme was intensive and I am pleased
because all areas are dealt with in details e.g. training, evaluation and
assessment! I would like to be exposed to more workshops though. I feel learners
will thoroughly enjoy this interactive approach to THRASS!
Very
interesting and informative, as I was placed in a school that used THRASS! I now
have a foundation of knowledge of THRASS and how it works! The only thing that I
found was that the two days was not enough! The course should be about five
days! I have enjoyed the two days and believe that THRASS should be implementing
in all schools in South-Africa!
The
presenter was lively, happy and new exactly what she was talking about. She was
organised, helpful and could answer any questions that were asked! I found the
THRASS programme very beneficial and very well thought about!
I certainly
know a lot more about THRASS now! Laola was energetic and friendly and was able
to explain in detail all the elements of this way of teaching! I now see how the
old phonic method of teaching literacy does not affectively teach learners how
to read and write!
Very
interesting; it makes a lot of sense as to how to teach the alphabet, phonemes
and graphemes! I think it is a brilliant idea and I hope that it will take off
in South-Africa and that all schools will make use of it!
An
enjoyable, informative course which provided me with knowledge that built upon
my prior knowledge of THRASS and literacy! I now know the theory behind the
implementation and structuring of work in the schooling system! It is never too
late to learn!
Very
interesting and the information I have received will now help me to skill the
learners in my school more effectively. Laola’s performance and presentation was
clear and enjoyable! Looking forward to teaching in my class now!
Laola was
dynamic and that the THRASS program well researched. I am looking forward to
teaching and using it in my school! However we need more training, the two day
workshop is not enough!
