EDUCATOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

Kelly Lynn Coaching and Consulting specializes in providing relevant and engaging professional development for educators to foster social and emotional learning, as well as, mental wellness for students AND the adults who support them. Equipping educators to support student’s social and emotional needs begins with taking care of the teacher first. Now more than ever, educators are experiencing extreme stress that is not only impacting their health and wellness, it is creating novel challenges and instability for children within the classroom. Educators who do not have adequate supports are often unable to effectively manage stress and frequently unable to assist in supporting the emotional needs of the children in their classroom.

Our professional development empowers educators with the skills to support their mental health needs and both model and instruct SEL and mindfulness skills for their students. Our interactive workshops and courses, offered in person, online and through digital platforms, focus on practical, easy to apply strategies that support mental wellness for educators so they can effectively support the wellness of their students with confidence. Let's design a meaningful professional development experience based on your community needs! Contact Kelly for more information about customized options for your school district's needs. >>>
