Philosophy for Beginners Testimonials from 2003 onwards
These comments from clients are a selection taken from feedback forms from adult education courses and privately held courses:
‘I really enjoyed the course – everyone had an opportunity to interact and discuss points of view with others’ John.
‘Very helpful and interesting and just enough not to become overloaded with information. Most enjoyable was defining language – i.e a concept, and the mind-body problem. Can recommend the course’ R.F.
‘Most enjoyable was an insight into the method/ practice of Philosophy and the free discussion. Fantastic introduction to further study – an insight into the method / practice of philosophy’ Den.
‘The notes related well, interesting reading. Most enjoyable were the general discussions. A good introduction into philosophy. It’s good to hear other people’s views’ Ken.
‘Discussions were practical. The exercise about defining a person was fun (using pieces of paper)’ George.

Teaching ‘Philosophy for Children’ Testimonials
These are a selection of feedback comments I have received from P4C teacher trainings in Southern Tasmania:
‘I’d like to say how fabulous I found the second day in particular, I went away all inspired to do concept games etc, and use other things than literature for community of inquiry. I will be recommending to Lenah Valley where I also work when I am not teaching online for CELO that they consider getting you in to do some PD about this area as the LV [Lenah Valley] children would love it I think.
Thanks again, getting to actually go somewhere different ike the female factory made me really think about how I could use other sites, and also how I could use places like the museum which I’ve taken kids to many times in a new and better way, inspirational!’ Anne.
‘Thank you ever so much for the decision making session on Monday. The students benefited such a lot from the session and we have followed up with two sessions this week focussing on bringing information to a decision, and giving reasons for decisions.
