Course Description: This fully self-paced, self-guided, and online course is perfect for all NYC educators, whether you’re currently in the classroom, in a non-classroom role, or even on leave. With no need to work directly with students to complete it, you'll enjoy unmatched flexibility at your own speed. One of our most popular courses, "Building Positive Relationships" highlights a simple truth: Education is a people business! Creating strong, healthy connections with students isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. You’ll explore practical strategies like managing stress to avoid burnout, taking a neuroscientific approach to emotional intelligence, making learning fun and accessible for even the most hard-to-reach students, and establishing trust through equity and mutual respect. You’ll also learn how to build rapport, find common ground, and design a prosocial classroom that fosters critical consciousness. By the end of the course, you’ll have all the tools and knowledge you need to enhance your job satisfaction and boost student achievement through the power of positive relationships—all on your own schedule, from anywhere. |
