This two-day class will give students everything they need to be great teacher. Whether it’s a demo at your turning club or a week-long seminar at MASW, participants will be able to construct a successful experience for folks. You don’t have to be the most expert person on the subject to be the best teacher. The simple idea is that the class is not about you but about what the learner will be able to do once they leave your class. The method is based on how police officers and armed forces personnel are taught to execute tasks. Students will learn how to break down a class into simple, easy to achieve objectives. Then they will build a class from those objectives with lots of practice exercises. You will learn how to overcome stage fright, how to get folks engaged in the subject, and how to encourage questions and feedback. Students will look at actual MASW classes and learn how their favorite instructors deliver such excellent instruction. David will cover how to do 3-D sketches on the board, create handouts, and how to develop demonstrations that are clear and easy to follow. By the end of the weekend, students will be able to conduct a class critique that encourages students and shows them areas to improve. And it will be fun helping others how to learn from you.
