Quick Tips!

Hi all,

Just a quick summary and some quick tips. :) Doesn't everyone just love study guides with their salient points?

1. Silence is Golden. It's always just good to wait. How long? 1, 2, 3 minutes it doesn't matter. There'll always be at least 1 brave soul in the group who will start talking. :)

2. Don't lecture and don't impose yourself too much. E.g. You must <<>> I <<>> We always <<>>

3. Facilitatees have to talk more than facilitators. :)

4. Notes on Page 22 : IMPORTANT - Please read.

5. Be flexible. Sometimes you might have to go off tangent. E.g. get them to talk/bond. There are always things worth exploring. The main objective is for them to talk and share. Refer to point 3.

**6. Show that you are interested. Eye contact, lean forwards slightly, clarify points, affirm. Not everyone finds it easy to share their thoughs and feelings. Be supportive and listen.

okie dokie! enough talking!
have a great week in school.
