A very important part of the work of any Christian Minister or Leader is teaching small groups of adults. This book is designed to give an easy to read and interesting introduction to some basic principles of Adult Education.

Among topics covered are learning how to plan lessons, how to use different teaching methods and teaching aids and how to cater for people who learn in different ways. Also discussed is what it means to be a good teacher and how to assess the progress of students.

The book is different from an ordinary text book in that it is written as a story. Six students of different nationalities, denominations and backgrounds meet together with their tutor, Matthew Mbwana, to learn how to teach adults.

Matthew’s dream is to establish a simple course in Adult Education as part of the syllabus of the Theological College where he is a teacher.Some aspects of the course are unfamiliar and at times uncomfortable but the six students form close friendships with each other and with their tutor as they learn together.
