I wish I could accept your invitation to say nice things about Hyde. Unfortunately, I'm hard pressed to come up with any nice comments of any substance. My Hyde experience, and that of most of the people I was there with, was absolutely horrible. Here's my short list:
Too many staff who abused us verbally
Too many staff who were young and inexperienced
Too many staff who didn't have their act together
Too many staff who were caught up in the Hyde script and used it in place of their own independent thinking
Too many staff who had no idea what to do in the classroom as teachers
Too many seminars where people "lost it" and staff didn't know what to do
Too many students with big time mental health problems and no staff to help them
Too much time listening to Joe Gauld lecture us
I am so sorry I went to Hyde. I've been trying to recover ever since.
