Show Notes

In this episode we are joined by Zoe Gow, the ACE Coordinator at Pooraka Farm Community Centre. We explore the topic of Adult Community Education, discussing how these courses can foster a sense of achievement among community members and prepare them for future work or studies.

Zoe emphasizes the importance of understanding person-centered care, as well as various cultural and personal experiences, while teaching foundational skills. She also discusses the different ways you can incorporate practical activities throughout courses to create a safe space for learners to apply their newly acquired skills.
