SEMINARS - Parents, Educators, Health Professionals
|
With ten years of experience in teaching, and another twenty years working as a child psychologist, Alison brings experience from both an educational and psychological perspective. Through interactions with both parents and teachers over many years, she recognised the need for more information on parenting and educational issues, and the strong desire to hear real-life examples and case studies, with practical and effective take away strategies. Alison runs seminars for parents and teachers both online, and on request for schools, parenting groups and corporations. |
