I have learnt so much, even for myself as the centre manager and realizing I have areas I can improve on in my teaching practice!

Im loving what I am learning, this is an area I am trying to strengthen, so I am gaining little tips- or I am identifying little bits I am leaving out. So this was again very helpful.
— Cherie
Thanks for reminding us the importance of coaching on the right time so that it later doesn't have to reach a performance management issue. Very informative session team!
