You will benefit from this course as a Teacher, Trainer, Manager in Education or Parent and are enthusiastic about applying the latest developments in NLP to teaching and learning.

People in all walks of life with a desire to help children and young people learn better are also welcome.

Working in Education today is a constant challenge. More and more children and young people display behavioural and learning difficulties. There is increasing pressure to improve results, raise achievement and move from success to excellence. NLP provides techniques, strategies and solutions to the problems of teaching and learning, motivating and engaging students.

This training enables you to learn in very specific ways how learning takes place. You learn how to use language in powerful and elegant ways to ensure students really understand you. You will find teaching easier and more enjoyable when you have the skills, behaviours and attitudes of NLP to help you.

Many Practitioner programmes are generic or therapeutic in context. This unique programme is the only Licensed NLP Practitioner for Education qualification certified by the Society of NLP

You will learn all the fundamentals necessary for the practitioner qualification with the added benefit of discovering how these apply to learning. Most importantly your will learn with humour and laughter, easily and enjoyably and learn how to pass your enjoyment to your students.

The increasing focus on improving results, reaching targets and individual learning programmes means that effective delivery is at the heart of all schools and colleges. Your organisation will benefit from your training by dramatically improving the quality of teaching and learning for students.

There are many NLP Practitioner programmes with a focus on learning which don’t teach the specific techniques that ensure learning happens. This programme is based on research that clearly demonstrates that dramatic improvements in achievement can be made in a very short period of time when teachers have these advanced skills. Your organisation will benefit as you gain the ability to; engage and motivate students, ensure assignments are completed with enthusiasm, communicate supremely effectively, improve tutoring, deliver lively learning and much more.

During this course you learn of our research projects demonstrating truly phenomenal results in the classroom. In short our research shows that students learn effectively, retain more and achievement is improved.
