Learning Without Tears

A 4-day training workshop titled ‘Learning without Tears’, aimed at educating preschool teachers on current & practical teaching methods was conducted during the Diwali vacations in November 2007. Learning without Tears was an off shoot of Gnyandeep in our endeavor to reach out to a larger number of preschool teachers. The workshop addressed topics of great import in preschool education such as learning difficulties, phonological awareness, teaching language and phonics, reading, writing, maths & behavior modification. This workshop was held from 13th to 16th November 2007.

One of the teachers who attended Learning Without Tears had this to say about the program. "It was really nice to have such a workshop about actual problems a teacher faces with the students in handling the little brains. The new skills were also very interesting. To practice these rules and to handle the students (who are not less than 60 in a class) is a really tough job. But we shall try our level best to put in efforts to act on the skills and handle the children in a better way".
