What they don't teach you at school (Alternate title: Teacher training II)

Besides teaching teachers, we also gave training to caretakers in the same subjects of learning styles, discipline, and then in love languages as well. They too were receptive of our information, though admittedly a few older teachers were more accustomed to older patterns of relating to children which included extremes of shaming students and/or reinforcing bad behavior.

But where I had known one or two women at Savva before, now I know many! They came to sit with us, greeted us, and loved the fact that Sara said the children at Savva are all our children. Sara and I are so excited about helping not just the children, but the caretakers and teachers which in turn will bless the children twice over!

(Here we are playing a silly game together!)
