TEE Group Leader Training

The TEE Group Leader training gives you the skills to confidently lead an interactive small group using the detailed lesson plans in the group leader guide. During the 1.5 – 2-day intensive hands-on training, you’ll practice speaking a maximum of 25%-30% of the time in a group meeting.

A typical training includes the following topics: 

• • What is TEE?

• • Elements of TEE: personal study, weekly group discussion, practical life application

• • TEE methodology – role of leader as facilitator (not lecturer); regular (usually weekly) small group discussion and application; interactive format

• • “Taster lessons” where participants experience the TEE methodology first-hand

• • The educational approach of TEE materials – simple (not simplistic), sequential, repetitive, with Scripture memorisation

• • TEE materials: Abundant Life, Life of Christ, and many other intermediate and advanced courses

• • Facilitator skills – how to promote discussion, reflection and fellowship in your group. The importance of prayer.

• • Participant-led practice lessons

• • An action plan for organising new TEE groups – facilitator, dates, location, resources needed

Participants are asked to contribute a modest fee for meals, snacks, resource materials (plus lodging if necessary) and a small amount to help cover the transportation costs of the trainer(s).

The goal of all TEE courses is personal transformation, leading to
transformation of the local context where God has placed his people.
