- Development of fast thinking, association and reasoning (functional knowledge).
- Timely observation of gifted students and supporting the development of their abilities.
What we do at NTC workshops
Early development and early stimulation are key factors in child development. The brain develops at a powerful rate until the age of 7, and then until the age of 12, so during this period, using appropriate exercises and activities can help children in developing their biological potential. Each NTC workshop is composed so that it contains elements that develop complex motor activities, mental categorisation, mental seriation and association, the development of divergent and convergent thinking, as well as functional knowledge. During these workshops, the children have meaningful tasks at hand; they have to both think and play.
