- challenges implementing reactive teaching in different contexts
- obstacles in moving from a structured approach to teaching to one of transference
- using the "so you can" framework to get to the heart of your client's desired transformation
- handling student objections to Dogme
- utilizing self assessments and reflections so students gauge their own progress
- why your course needs guiding principles and how to create them
- approaching grammar as a choice, not as rules
