Some children with specific learning difficulties do not have the skills or expertise needed to work effectively on their own. They often need the support of a facilitator who provides instructional support and direction regarding specific tasks, working under the direct supervision of a qualified teacher.
This course is recommended for people with some experience in the field of education as well as for students and parents interested in working in inclusive educational settings. It offers training in management techniques, where part one specifically focuses on the role of the facilitator and specific learning difficulties, and part two focuses on classroom strategies and practical experience in the classroom.
