Being an effective educator isn’t just about what you know.

This is particularly upsetting when working with the students (or staff) who push your buttons the most, and yet you know that if certain things could fall into place, those same individuals could really shine.

Lead a group

What if you had both an understanding of the real root of negative behavior and the right tools to do something about it?!

When students push your buttons, staff are struggling, or that fourteenth angry email from a parent lands in your inbox, head knowledge tends to go out the window. In comes frustration, disappointment, and even feelings of failure.

You got into this work to make the world a better place, but find yourself stuck in an endless cycle of behavior management and crisis-of-the-hour.
