Understanding your child and family Dynamic!
Temper the Temperaments!
The four Greek temperaments are over 2000 years old and continue to offer deep pedagogical insights into the nature of the human being. These aspects of the personality can be invaluable guides for teaching and learning more about your child as well as how to deliver a full-bodied lesson using the temperaments. These insights offer a refreshing understanding of personality types for the whole family. Diane brings these alive through a story, improv, and humour. This is a strong relationship builder for families!
