what you said about the conference...

“There is no better way to learn than through interaction with ones peers and hearing from experts in the field of evolutionary biology. I will definitely recommend this conference to my peers.”

“What I most enjoyed about this conference was the interaction with others, the professional level of all presenters and the practical activities and ideas learnt that I can now take back to my school.”

“Yes! Yes! Easy access to evolutionary biology topic. Brilliant presentations and a phenomenal staff.”

“I would recommend this conference to my peers as it is a new addition to the syllabus and the workshop gives a better understanding of how to approach this new topic, introduce it and most importantly teach it to the learners.”

“What I enjoyed most about the workshop was the access to resources, organization, structure of events and the immense knowledge of the presenters.”

“Teachers will be exposed to many experts on this topic and will return to the classroom with more developed skills and a renewed confidence that will allow them to face the challenges in the classroom head on.”

“I will recommend this conference to my peers as many, if not the majority, of educators are not enlightened on this topic.”

“I really enjoyed the presentations as they were easy to follow, especially those on fossils. The enthusiasm of all staff and speakers involved was great and their sharing of knowledge most valuable.”
