In each workshop, there are two teachers usually 18-28 years of age and are one male and one female. They have been trained to assist the children in the development of their practice of values.The teachers are trained mentors who treat their students not as children but as equals. As a friend, the mentor helps to create an environment in which each group member feels comfortable expressing his or her thoughts, free from the fear of censure or ridicule.
