SUPPORT TEACHERS

   IMPACT STUDENTS 

ADULT SEL IMPACTS 

Administrators, Teachers, and Parents agree that Social-emotional learning is just as important as academic learning. 


But teachers need more support, 75% of teachers have only had informal SEL training.


How can we expect to impact students if we aren't supporting teachers? 


SEL Educator's Implementation Guide and Adult SEL Skill-building sessions deliver the support you need to support social-emotional and academic outcomes for your school community. 

Believe SEL is just as important as academic learning 

Jaisley

1st Year Teacher


"I am a first-year teacher and these strategies are amazing. I have already implemented them in my planning and accommodated for virtual learning."

Janelle

6th Grade Teacher 


"Wow! You have great information on how to bring our students to feel stronger about themselves and become positive students and adults."

Tiffany

11th-year teacher


"This is my 11th year of teaching and I thought I knew everything about SEL.

I am so glad I participated because I learned so much and came away with some new ideas to begin this very unique year."

Melissa

Classroom Teacher


"I didn't have any courses on SEL in my teacher prep program. I find that this is my biggest weakness as a teacher. Your presentation really broke things down and was a great place to start learning more about SEL."

TESTIMONIALS 
SCHOOLS & DISTRICTS WE'VE WORKED WITH 
ORGANIZATIONS WE'VE PARTNERED WITH 
A national scan of Social-Emotional Learning and teacher preparation explores the following key findings:


  • Key Finding 1: Colleges of Education in 47 states have developed 1-3 core Teacher SEL dimensions. The only program that addressed four of the five core SEL dimensions is in the District of Columbia.
  • Key Finding 2: The promotion of student SEL is given little attention in required courses in teacher preparation programs in colleges of education in the US. 49 states did not address any of the five core Student SEL dimensions. 
  • Key Finding 6: State-level certification requires coursework that develops teacher SEL but does not address student SEL and learning context.

If we want to impact students, we have to teach teachers. For successful SEL implementation, it’s imperative to build a teacher support framework that emphasizes the development of educator social-emotional competence and understanding of students’ social-emotional learning needs

To ensure that your school community is equipped with the skills necessary to foster school-wide social-emotional competence, it is imperative to advocate for in-service and professional development training that emphasizes student SEL dimensions, teacher self-awareness, and self-management.



Unfortunately, these crucial components are often absent from teacher preparation programs. By prioritizing these skills, you can better prepare your educators to support the social-emotional well-being of their students and contribute to a positive learning environment. Make sure your school community is taking the necessary steps to prioritize social-emotional competence among its educators.
