Makaton Training
​

The best way to learn Makaton is to attend a workshop. It means that you learn with other people, share your experiences, receive feedback on your signing and symbol work and enables you to practise with others. It also gives you the opportunity to meet and build a relationship with Rebecca, who can help and support you in the future.
The following courses are available:
  • Makaton Levels 1 - 4.
  • Makaton Taster Sessions - for staff in a variety of settings.  
  • Makaton Taster session for parents, carers and supporters.
  • Using Makaton with Singing.
As an experienced Makaton tutor I have trained a wide range of settings from early years, mainstream and SEN schools, SEN colleges, children's residential homes and NHS.   I am able to offer a range of courses including taster sessions, Levels 1 - 4 and Using Makaton with Singing direct to your setting or as central courses delivered at our Cadmus Inclusive Hub in Walsall.  For in-house training at your setting contact me here:

What people say about Rebecca's training...

Makaton Level 1 - 4 Workshops and
​taster sessions

There are a range of workshops available which are designed to meet the level of training that you need; whether you are just starting out, progressing to a more advanced level or aiming to become a Makaton Tutor.

What will you learn?

All Makaton training provides you with information about what Makaton is and how it can be used in different settings. You also learn signs and symbols from the Core Vocabulary to an appropriate level. The Core Vocabulary has the signs and symbols needed for everyday communication.
​

Makaton with Singing

Using Makaton with Singing is a fun and easy way to learn to use signs with singing for young children.  Signing and singing have been shown to encourage the development of communication and language skills and are beneficial for vocalisation, confidence, social skills, emotional development, well-being and self-esteem.
