    Description

    The Course:

    Founded on how children develop emotionally and intellectually and developed in real teaching practice in London Secondary schools, this course puts the relationship between teacher and learner at its core. Over 3 levels, the course steps teachers though how to create effective relationships with their students and helps them respond authentically and effectively to the needs of every child they teach.

    Taught through a series of playfully animated video lectures, each Module is split into three Units - In Theory, In Practice and Connect and Reflect. The Theory lecture introduces essential, easy to follow theory, illustrated with playful and illustrative animations (25 mins) .  The In Practice Unit outlines how theory had been applied to real classroom practice (15 - 20 mins). Finally, the Connect and Reflect lecture encourages teachers to apply and embed the learning into their own practice. (10mins)


    Linking Theory to Practice

    The course links theory with practical teaching strategies and helps teachers not only to help students by developing their own craft in the classroom but to also become more personally resilient as professionals.The research that underpins A Mind to Teach is derived from the work of some of the world’s most eminent child development psychologists and is grounded in a psychodynamic/psychotherapeutic approach.

    The training programme is a synthesis of 6 years psychological study in both Emotional Aspects of Learning and Teaching and A Psychodynamic Approach to Organisational Systems.


    A statement from Steve

    "The course marries my own struggle in the classroom with the research that eventually helped me transform my practice and my career.  I continue to pass on my findings and experiences to other teachers through this online course as well as through in person courses and consultancy.   And I still teach!

    My own research was carried out in partnership with The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, a specialist mental health trust with a focus on training and education alongside a full range of mental health services and psychological therapies for children and their families.

    The applied research for the initial six lessons of the a mind to teach training - and all off shoots of this training - is grounded in the work of Melanie Klein, John Bowlby, Donald Winnicott with more recent developments specifically focusing on the work of teachers and schools, drawing on the work of Isca Wittenberg, Biddy Youell, Margaret Rustin, Margot Waddel, Deborah Britzman and others. Some references are made to the neuroscientific work of Stephen Porges, William Bradford Canon and Phillip Carland and others."

    Who this course is for:

    • Teachers of any level who want to help children learn in and have a happier time doing it

    One rainy November afternoon about 15 years ago, I gave up teaching for good. I sat down at the front of the class, defeated. I was done.I expected chaos – the kind of chaos that had been going on moments before I threw in the towel. But, as I sat waiting for the bell what I saw changed everything.I saw the children organise themselves into ‘learning groups’. Some were doing homework, others were discussing their lives, asking about family and friends, learning about one another and yet others were trading survival secrets about other teachers and upcoming lessons. Everything they were doing was about learning.They were innately curious, they created order and all across the classroom there was collaboration.So, the question for me then – the supposed teacher - as I sat there was this:If children are driven to learn, what was I bringing into the room, in my attitude, body language, tone of voice, the lesson outline, content and delivery – that drove that instinct into a ditch?For me, the answer lay in researching via two Masters Degrees the implicit emotional and psychological relationship between teacher and learner and applying that research to create classrooms where learning becomes a shared endeavour that happens naturally.This course is the result of that research and its application in over 15 years of teaching and leading in UK schools”
    Students take courses primarily to improve job-related skills.Some courses generate credit toward technical certification. Udemy has made a special effort to attract corporate trainers seeking to create coursework for employees of their company.
