Teacher training course Collaboration, Teamwork and Teambuilding in Dubrovnik, CroatiaI have to say the course was absolutely brilliant and it superseded my expectations.The course was held in Dubrovnik, which is a jewel on the Croatian Adriatic coast. Dubrovnik itself is a must-visit/see/experience – everyone will be charmed by this lovely city, its beautiful clear sea, clean and warm air, small museums and the music of the night buskers.Our course lasted 5 days, it was well-organised and inspiring. Dario’s classes were like going on an adventure, where he would guide us and open new possibilities for seeing things from a fresh point of view, by opening new doors which we either couldn’t see before or didn’t know existed. Dario is very competent and experienced; he taught at a steady pace and he never rushed. He was our teacher, guide and motivator; there was no time to ever feel tired or bored. He gave us a lot of useful and constructive information, many invaluable examples and tips, which, I am sure, every one of the participants of the course will carry forward into our classrooms, enriching our teaching practice and the learning experiences of our students.The course was also a great success because all the participants collaborated very well in building teamwork and surely our work achieved a synergy effect.I believe that the Erasmus+ programme has been a great opportunity to learn, cooperate and exchange teaching/learning experiences and I am already looking at the next course to enrol on.

Interesting courses, an attractive teacher, a fabulous place to hang out and gain knowledge.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

A plethora of challenges surround the task of teaching in the 21st century. Teachers face many obstacles, such as excessive beaurocracy, student insubordination, difficult working conditions and many more. This, in turn, leads to stress in the workplace and a possible burnout as a result of accumulated tension. Hence, a strong focus on our mental health seems to be imperative and essential to living happy and healthy lives.

Our course ‘Focus on Mental Health & Well-being using Mindfulness’ looks into what pushes our buttons & how we can make stress our friend. We will discuss our stressors and remind ourselves of the positive aspects of our lives.
The course delves into living in the present moment and introduces breathing as the ultimate anchor for our well-being. The participants will be encouraged to tap into their five senses, take mindful walks and engage in collaborative excercises to enhance their feeling of wellness.
Furthermore, the course also expands focus on our students & their mental health with the introduction of emotional awareness principles and teamwork challenges.

Our resident psychologist and Mindfulness instructor, Dario Caljkusic, holds an Honors degree from Lewis & Clark College, in Portland, Ore, USA. His course is both engaging and thought-provoking, entertaining yet introspective. As our former course participants Jane, Mette, Ditte & Lise-Lotte from Denmark wrote about Dario: ‘Thank you so much for the most exciting course.You have been a fantastic, motivating teacher’.
