Trainee-Trainer Rapport
   
  Teachers train,

  Teachers develop
  Trainers help
  And never stop
  Thinking on how to train!
  Foster creativity
  Or impose strain?
  Encourage autonomy
  Or cause pain?
   
       Guide and monitor,
       Do not train!
       Facilitate but do not reign
      Over pedagogy as a sovereign!
      You are no master, dear trainer,
      You are an  elder adviser.
      Care and share
      Do not wear the boss’s hat!
 

  Let us, as friends, chat!
    No slavishness,
    No linear plan!
    Reshuffle task sequence,
    Eclectically scan!
    Adapt and never adopt
    Any new method as such!
    For flexibility opt!
    Do not obey much
    The rigid rules of training
    But focus on self-developing!
