 Creative Learning Center

Making paper, a recycle project

The Creative Learning Center (CLC) is the name of our future center in Phato, but most of all it is the name of the methods we use for education here.

CLC focus is on learning in a creative way. Different tools and methods can be used to teach any kind of subject, depending on various things such as the interest of the students as well as the workshop leader or teacher.

The aim of education in the CLC is communication. For that the English language is used.

For example: a person who is passionate about music may use music as a tool to communicate. He or she will surely be capable of forwarding some of his/her enthusiasm to the students!

May 2006: the first lessons of the CLC on the mountain!Important is however that the teacher/workshop leader remains aware of the fact that the aim is to teach how to communicate in the English language, music can be the tool, but not the aim in this program.

Besides music there are endless possibilities one can consider, such as sport, fairy tales, games, dance, theater, nature, adventure, "writing my own book", making puppets, setting up a "pen-palls abroad friendship group" making handicraft, and so on.

The aim is for the students to be interested and enjoy and stimulate their capacity to learn many new things:

  • Learning something new and exciting (depending on your project and subject)

  • Communicating with a foreigner

  • Teamwork and playing in a group

  • The skills needed for the particular subject or method uses

  • Not to be shy while communicating in a new language

  • And so on
