Reflections
November 5, 2008 by mierelv
1. What outcome would I like to receive from this class? I would like to improve my skills as a trainer. I would like to become an excellent trainer, developing an ear to hear what is really said.
2. How do I create a safe space? For my students? I tell them upfront they are safe. I set ground rules in my classes. Here? For myself? I am careful with whom I interact, knowing, and appreciating that everyone is different.
3. What do I do to be present before I begin class. I pray and adopt the mindset, the Intention, that I want my class to be of benefit to my students.
4. How and what would I do in my first training…I would have the students introduce themselves, say something about themselves, etc.
5. How do I know each learner is getting what he or she needs? I trust each learner (in this setting) to be responsible for his or her learning. There are no grades, tests, etc., so I trust that each adult learner — all here voluntarily — will get what he or she needs. (If someone isn’t, he/she usually asks questions).
