Intensive Interaction - 1 day course - presented by Dave Hewett

Inten2This course will be of interest to staff of all disciplines who work with adults and children with learning difficulties, including social services staff, teachers and assistants, nurses, staff from voluntary organisations, therapists and indeed parents and other carers.

The focus is on the communication needs of people who have not achieved use nor perhaps understanding of speech and may be 'difficult to reach' in various ways.

Intensive Interaction is an approach where the member of staff is seen as the main teaching resource, using personal qualities of face, voice and body language to involve the learner in progressive sequences of interactive activities.
