The strengths of the workshop:

• The ability to work is emotional context sensitive issues.• Work from the body has made concepts is clearer.• The dynamic ability of the teacher to stimulate, contain lead,

redirect, know-how ... Lots clarity of expression.• Rhythms, a variety of activities, dynamics, humor, fun and very

entertaining ...• Practice has encouraged the active participation of all.• The experiential practice, good environment group, I have

gained new knowledge.• The share of the group together and trust.• Personal and professional experiences.

The areas for improvement workshop:• Weather (has failed) / I would have liked deeper / wider I.• Shorter sessions (3 hours) / sessions and shorter days, 4 hours I find

excessive.• The space in the classroom.• Group too large for some dynamic work.• More theoretical content.• I would have liked to know more dynamic pear made with users.• The intensity of the first two days of content.• More practical exhibitions - rollplayings.• Diversify / open a little more content.

How and what extent your personal expectations been met?

• There were too specific, but have been met and have opened new perspectives.

• What I managed to recognize my emotions in the professional field, learn how to transform them, to have tools.

• Have fulfilled all expectations / Well / have completed 90% / fairly high / have met exponentially / In a high / Fully

• Have accomplished very personal level. A professional would have liked more dynamic work for users.

• Changed what I expected to find, but I was even more pleased !!!• To have now completed the personal, the professional but I have not started.• Learn techniques to practice in certain situations and then make them

extended to partners and users.• I have experienced managing my emotions, but I have very dynamic to apply

it.

Conclusions

• A corporal and experiential approach to emotional learning achieves better results in terms of creating spaces for meaningful learning from self-exploration and experimentation, using the concepts: learning by doing or hands-on learning. In any part of the course I used the Alba Emoting method that allows us physically contact our emotions from the body but consider another method that considers the human being from all 3 levels: physical, emotional and cognitive, may be valid.

• Professionals and volunteers from the network need and ask this

emotional training support to develop their work and maintain a healthy psychological balance.

• This course has easily helped establish some networking and mutual support. This topic is very interesting because it allows to extend the learning and practice opportunities beyond the course.

• It was very easy to work with these participants because they were highly motivated in their work to care for people, had many practical expereiencias to contribute.

• They have been very interested and grateful with this European program and are willing to later follow

• One of the strengths of this course, I think, We have incorporated a follow up meeting 3 weeks later the course ,as a means of follow up participants meet to share their experiences of putting into practice some of the tools learnt on the course in their daily lives as a way to motivate the commitment and awareness to look after the emotional aspect of their lives and specifically in the work environment.

• Another of the successes of this course is that we have been very attentive at all times to the specific needs of participants, beyond the schedule set.

• In general, participants require specific techniques to use with users but I think from my method and philosophy, first we need to work with our emotions. We can’t accompany others in their emotions otherwise. We need how to sustaining strong emotional states often suffer from our users. How can we recognize and support people with a situation of loss or sadness if I dont know to be in silence, listening and not always distract them or encourage them directly. However were offered a practical document on emotional labor techniques for teachers.

• Regarding some participants asked a second part, it might be interesting to consider the possibility of a second part of dynamic users to work with emotions.
