Unlocking the Secrets of MINDFUL Teaching

May 21, 2018

Unlocking the Secrets of MINDFUL Teaching 🧠📚 At the recent Global Public School event, we delved deep into the world of MINDFUL teaching. We explored the challenges of sensory overload in today's digital age, understanding its impact on emotional, social, language, and cognitive development. Our dedicated teachers are committed to building meaningful relationships with students. We believe in the power of knowing our children, their likes, dislikes, anxieties, and strengths. By taking a positive and non-confrontational approach, we create an environment where every child feels valued and understood. Inclusion is at the heart of our teaching philosophy. We're not just running a program; we're fostering a mindset of learning together and from each other. No child is left behind as we guide them towards progress, recognizing that one size does not fit all. We also emphasized the importance of negotiating the pace of learning, dealing with difficult moments, and facilitating feedback through methods that go beyond traditional testing. Understanding and addressing emotions with compassion is a core part of our teaching, ensuring that students receive the support they need. We lead by example, acknowledging our strengths and weaknesses. We're not afraid to ask for help when necessary and work together as a team. This event was a reflection of our commitment to MINDFUL teaching, nurturing both students' minds and hearts. 🌟 #MINDFULTeachers #EducationForAll #GlobalPublicSchool"
