Claudia Petersen
servant leader, mentor
I've attended North Langley Community Church (NLCC) for 20 years. I currently direct and run a Christian Teacher Training Program in Uganda for local Christian teachers and administrators. I have taught for over 40 years in both the government and private school systems. Fifteen years ago I traveled to mentor young teachers at our sister school in Kibaale, Uganda where I fell in love with the people, especially the children. I've been working and growing a team of dedicated Ugandan trainers in a program called, "Transformational Teacher Training ( T.T.T.)" We serve both rural and city schools and aim to provide quality professional teacher training in the hopes of creating a future generation dedicated to loving and serving Jesus Christ in whatever they do. We feel that education is pivotal in introducing and expanding God's kingdom. I currently serve under an established NGO organization called, "Classrooms For Africa".
Who are we? - we are a group of educators who are passionate about Christian Education. I have a small team of local Ugandan trainers who travel with me to the various schools for training. Each trainer has taken the program and have had desire to teach alongside of me and one other senior colleague, Peter Ochulu, who was the Director at Kibaale Community School. In western Uganda we are training our 3rd cohort and we have 6 administrators who participated in the first cohort in 2022 who are receiving Professional Development so that they can eventually continue training in that area at some point. In total there are 3 women, and 10 men on our team. .
