This course offers sophisticated research to support the interventions that are taught. It is compatible with other work I have done on well being and it will enhance my work going forward.
I feel that this course was very helpful and informative. I feel that I will use the strategies that were taught in this course, for work, and in my personal life as well.
Really helpful for anyone who interacts with others. I took this course to help with social emotional needs of my students but it's really helping the social emotional needs of my family too!
Excellent tools and resources for everyday . Specifically post pandemic but enhancing what I already know and offering a self perspective component that will assist me in the future.
