Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Set up a radical education project where the children make the rules.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Consensus decision making; collaborative problem solving; non-violent communication; conflict resolution; self-directed learning; project-based learning; forest school; bushcraft; sewing; crochet; fixing things; creative electronics.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I am happy to help out with any jobs that need doing. My area of expertise is alternative education but I'm also pretty good at fixing things and general problem solving. I can help facilitate collective decision making, problem-solving and conflict resolution.
