While Vitalik was obtaining new knowledge on Counterpart's training, Slavik, Katya, Alyona and I attended another TTT, now by our national partner - Nordic.

This was an unforgettable experience for all of us. We had an excellent trainer - Diana Kebas, one of the best I've ever seen, - so professional, flexible and open that, personally I didn't feel being "supervised" or taught, but at the same time I looked at her and could see those things, skills and tricks she revealed for us. She was as an open book with good illustrations: you can read, you can imagine and you can see everything.

More than that, she was very open: open during discussions, open for questions, open for our organisation and us, open for further co-operation. She was as if she had been an alumna.

We learned many new things about the 3 elements of any training: a trainer, a group and content. We learned how to develop oneself as a trainer and stay motivated and optimistic throughout a training and after it, revealed groups' peculiarities and why they behave as they do and mastered techniques of content creation.

So, interesting, so useful...

I'm now dreaming about the time when we start preparing the educational cycle and teach our newies:)
