Tutor Seminar in Berkeley, CA

Tutor Seminar with Gail Stewart

Written by: Linda MacConnell

The first half of the Tutor training took place with Gail Stewart in Berkeley CA on the weekend of Jan 25-27, 2019. The participants came from Canada, Texas, Massachusetts, Illinois, California and Maryland. We all met at Jean Iams' house on a lovely residential street near the best fresh produce market just a block away. It was a lovely three days of calm discussion of the tutor manual. We broke down every page to better understand how important our skills, clarity, communication, feedback and self reflection are, along with practicing the role of helping someone else grow in this profound work. We are all looking forward to meeting again during the seminar and conference at Pearlstone in September!
