The Art and Science of Effective Listening
As an educator have you experienced feelings of isolation or overwhelm with the emotional load of so many human needs?
You are making a difference in the lives of kids but how is your energy? How are you feeling as a role model, a colleague, and a whole person?
Empathy School was designed to both nurture and empower educators to address the overwhelming experience of isolation and the tremendous emotional burden that they carry.
Empathy School
Program Details
A five-hour, in-person training on the art and science of effective listening, Empathy School develops in educators the capacity to understand another person’s feelings or perspectives and to communicate understanding to that person. Research demonstrates that when teachers and school leaders are more empathic they develop more productive and satisfying relationships which results in a healthy school culture where students and adults thrive.
Bring online Empathy School to your campus, district, or organization.
Empathy School combines interactive activities, group discussion, skills training, role-play, and reflection to help educators master the four components of empathy
- Taking others' perspectives
- Recognizing others' feelings
- Communicating an understanding of others' feelings
- Staying out of judgement
What Educators Are Saying About Empathy School
Why FuelEd?
Many initiatives in the SEL space focus on the social and emotional development of the student, but educators cannot possibly model this work if they have not developed personally first, nor can they be truly “trauma-informed” if they have not processed and healed from their own trauma.
With over 8 years of experience developing the emotional intelligence and self-awareness of educators, FuelEd is the premier provider for adult social-emotional learning, helping educators grow into secure attachment figures that build the kinds of relationships that heal trauma, promote brain growth, and produce optimal learning.
