What is something that you have done with something that you learned on a course with us? In other words, how did seeds that were planted here grow?

I learned that if I want successful students in my classroom my first step as a teacher must be to make them feel .how much I care and understand their needs and fears as students.

I learnt and received a lot from Mary, Centro Espiral MANA, El Invu and Costa Rica: Love, hope, vision, pieces of advice, great food, and lots of reasons to be happy and thankful for the job we all do. I think we will never forget those wonderful moments in our classrooms, bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, and all the places we had the chance of visiting. Thanks a lot dear Mary! God bless you and all the wonderful human beings who work with you!!!

Sorry, I was so excited remembering such beautiful moments in Costa Rica that I forgot to mention what I have done with what I learned there: I have been able to change my way felling, thinking and acting with the people around me, I have learnt to prepare and give workshops and plenaries in my country and outside my country with a new humanistic and developmental approach and I have applied compassion in most of my daily activities with all the people around me, and one of the most important things is that wherever I go, Costa Rica is always onmy mind and in my presentations as an example of Love and Compassion!!!

I have practiced three strategies you and your team taught me: CCQs, use my right hand to organize group work, and, listening. Hard to achieve, but I am not giving up.

Thanks
