Teacher training courses
serTA runs regular RSCDS Teaching Certificate courses preparing candidates for Part 1 (Units 1, 2 and 3) or Part 2 (Unit 5) through training and practical exercises to develop skills for successful teaching.
Our current course is nearing completion. See below request to help the candidates for their mocks and exam on 7th and 21st June.
We invite you to join with other volunteers, to assist our candidates for the RSCDS Teachers Certificate Course, by “stooging” at the mock and/or the main exams. If you can now commit (to any part of the days) please let us know and please encourage your fellow dancers to volunteer.
These are “Free lessons” for all intermediates and advanced dancers (sorry no beginners). You are not being examined; it is only the candidates! The dates are Saturday 7th June 2025 (mock exams) and Saturday 21st June 2025 (main exams). Approximate timings are 09:15 – 13:00 and 14:00 – 17:00.
This year 8 candidates are taking their RSCDS dancing exams, 6 from London and the South East, who are the future of SCD teaching in our area. Our musician for the course is Ken Martlew (piano).
Please email Brian Rose for further details and to let us know you can help: theroses115@gmail.com
Congratulations to all our 2023 candidates. Carolyn Adrain, Armaiti Bedford, Raquel Fernandez and Iris Ronayne all successfully completed unit 3 and Caroline Catterall, Jan Collings, Christine Jeffery, Murrough Landon and Liz Mason completed unit 5. The course ran from January to June in Hertfordshire and included participants from within the serTA (S.E.) region and from further afield, including two from Spain.
