Testimonials
Amohelang Nameng
Early childhood development trainee“I am a 23 year old preschool teacher at Semane preschool in Phokeng in Rustenburg, North West Province. Ntataise has taught me so much. Before this training, I did not have a lot of the skills I gained through training. I have learned about the ELDAs in NCF, how to incorporate them into my planning and to plan according to themes.”
Thembeka Magida
Early childhood development trainee“Ntataise grew me spiritually, emotionally and mentally. The training helped me realise my rights and how to extend themes and lessons to children. I learned to say no when I disagree with something. Lastly, the training taught me how to run a preschool.
I am really thankful for what Ntataise is doing for us. It really encouraged me to open my own pre-school. It even made me to improve my presentation skills.”
