Specific facilitation skills for

 - understanding and facilitating good group dynamics

About our Licensees:

Carol from Worthing about our licensee Camilla Miller:

Camilla and her course were recommended by a colleague at work... I have learnt that my daughter's behaviour was a reaction to how she was being treated, and all the emotions behind it. With Camilla's experience and guidance I learnt how to be connected with my daughter and encourage her in a positive way. Within two weeks I noticed the changes and how good she was responding to all techniques learnt. I am so delighted to see my daughter shining and willing to help without being asked to.  Our course lasted five weeks, which went so quick and I could not be more grateful with Camilla and her help.

Yesterday I delivered week 2 of the course and I wanted to thank you - I am just loving it!!! You get true feedback from parents each week and they all attest to the fact that it really works. One father who started off a bit sceptical the first week said last night that "descriptive praise works like magic". Another dad who came for the first time yesterday (under duress) said "I learnt more in the first 45 minutes than I have in 13 years of being a parent".
