About the webinar:
Through real-life stories and experiences, this presentation will cover the strategies and philosophies required to teach students who have been labelled formally and informally as behavioural. They can be the most challenging but most rewarding group to teach. Students who are considered behavioural can bring on anxiety and a quick burnout in educators.
As educators, we can become the catalyst that gives these often misunderstood students drive and belief in themselves. We can become the advocate that allows other educators to see them as they deserve to be seen; children with immense potential.
The goal for this presentation is to ultimately rejuvenate educators and to lower their apprehension about having a student with behavioural challenges in their classroom. To see them as not something to overcome but as an opportunity to make an immense difference in their lives, their family’s life and the society they will impact someday.
