Taking Hands Around the World
Working online makes it possible to include colleagues from many countries, enriching our work to the benefit of all the children in our care.
Our handwork teacher training program courses are scheduled Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 2:00pm Pacific Time, one weekend a month.
In our 2 years together we will be digging deep into foundations of teaching handwork. We will work our way through grades 1-8. Each month you will receive a selection of reading materials, patterns, project instructions, resources, and assignments to complete in your own time before we meet.
We offer extensive exploration of the essence of handwork and its pedagogical value within the broader Waldorf curriculum. Building on Steiner’s indications, we explore the ways in which Waldorf handwork education can honor multiple traditions in independent, public, or home-school settings.
​
We provide you with the resources to meet each child in a developmentally appropriate way, to succeed in your collegial work, parent education, and development of your personal inner work, helping you thrive as a handwork teacher in the long term.
