Class Format
The entire curriculum for Mamma Primitiva will run for about three years. You must enroll for the first six months. We hope that by then you will love it and want to continue.
The first three classes of each month will be posted under student links and include either:
- Taped session, a written session or a film from the conferences.
- Birth story that would model this particular topic
- Set of questions that will be on the weeks lesson. These questions will be answered collectively and discussed amongst the other students through student links under class discussions. A final answer from each country (or maybe a combination of all countries depending on what students decide) and will be then sent to me within 4 days of the assignment via the website on the student link . It will become apparent who will be the one or ones to compile a completed answer from the women to the instructor. A final answer will be sent via the website from the instructor back to you all under student link, black book. If you do not want to answer the questions, that is your choice. We will post a months sessions at a time.
The last class of the month (the fourth class) will be for the women to communicate with each other on skype or via the website. It will also be the time to send the instructor any questions that they have. It will be the time to note the information in the little black book. For example if there was a question like, " what would you if a woman had leg cramps in pregnancy?" The answer would be under L for legs or C for cramps. Again the place to see the final answer is in the student link section under black book.
The entire course and program is taught, run and managed by a dedicated volunteer professional staff. All fees (100%) of all proceeds, including the materials and videos and the administrative system we are using, goes to the birth clinic in Haiti and no amount of the donation you make is personally retained.
