What is your Golf Style?

Yvonne Walus — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 10:11:24 GMT

The process of improving your game follows the same rules as everything else: the learning environmnet plays a role, your thinking style matters, your senses get involved. But did you know that while you may be a visual learner when it comes to mathematics, you may be a kinesthetic learner in golf? So don't rely on your LSA or TSA results: find out how best to practice your golf by completing your Golf Style Analysis http://www.creativelearningcentre.com/products/.

Quality Teachers Needed

Yvonne Walus — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 02:19:28 GMT

A recent Auckland (New Zealand) survey indicates that 70% of schools struggle to find experienced teachers. Most applicants tend to be beginning teachers or from overseas. Staff retention is also an issue in many schools. We at Creative Learning believe we have a solution: our Teaching Style Analysis (TSA).

A new discipline regime in New Zealand top schools

Yvonne Walus — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 09:49:56 GMT

Even the brightest students could be held back a year at school if their attitude at school is found wanting, if they fail to do homework, or if they regularly fail to get to school on time.

The regime was a success at Shirley Boys' High in
Christchurch, and will now be implemented at Westlake Boys High in Auckland.

The main goal of the new scheme is to emphasize the importance of attitude and effort at school.

As of now, whenever you process a profile or download an already existing LSA, WSA or TSA report, you will have a list of languages to choose from, provided the translation exists. (Your choice will affect the entire user interface of your Account as well.)

The languages available at the moment include:
- English
- Spanish
- German
- Turkish
- Finnish

This feature is free - for now.
