Have you noticed that today, it takes
more energy and stamina to teach successfully? Whether it’s
mastering new subject matter, addressing diverse student needs,
teaching to different learning styles, implementing regular
assessments, learning to use new technology, maintaining classroom
order, managing time, or just making sure all students made adequate
yearly progress. The toll from these ever increasing expectations
can weigh heavily, leading to costly early retirement, career
changes, increased educational climate, educators need new skills
and strategies to become effective and more resilient.
The Resilient Educator is a powerful,
highly-relevant training program that helps educators boost
performance, improve school relationships, and strengthen
resiliency. Acclaimed by educators for its new ideas and solid
foundation in neuroscience, the program’s scientifically-validated
techniques are easy to learn and help rekindle educators’ motivation
and energy. Drawing on the Institute for HeartMath’s fifteen years
of scientific research and successful interventions with
corporations, hospitals, government agencies and schools, this
training engages educators through its timely, practical and
research based approach.
