Teaching is not what it used to be. Modern life is too complicated, too stressful and too quick to change. Teaching is negatively impacted by this, and the results are reflected by students’ academic and emotional state.
Invest in your teachers’ emotional wellbeing to reduce stress, increase job satisfactiton, retain teachers longer and improve academic achievements at your school. Book emotionally-focused professional development!
Teaching with Emotional Intelligence: PD for the People Who Work in Education
Traditional ways of teaching have given way to lots of technology, high rate of depression and anxiety among teachers and students, miscommunication, relationship breakdowns, information overload and feelings of being trapped.
Unfortunately, most of the focus seems to be on the students. Governments invest in them without supporting the most important agents of education and identity – parents and teachers. Professional development for teachers focuses on Math or English, not on the teachers.
We believe that teachers are important in the life of their students and that investing in their emotional intelligence will increase their happiness and therefore their ability to teach and to be role models.
In an interactive full day professional development for teachers, participants get the keys to leading a happy life and the importance of emotional intelligence in their classrooms and their students’ success in life. Relaxed, confident, happy teachers educate and nurture relaxed, confident, happy students that succeed academically with ease.
You can have “super teachers” that make “super students” by focusing on emotional intelligence. Book this great professional development for teachers at your school!
