Your best-made lesson plans are delayed by listening to your students argue about a problem that occurred at recess. You deal with this stress by addressing the class in a way that you regret. You know you鈥檙e a great teacher but you鈥檙e overwhelmed. \nIf this sounds familiar\, Teaching from the Heart is the professional development course for you. Using a curriculum based on Nonviolent Communication principles\, this program will provide you with tangible ways to manage your classroom and reach your full potential as an educator. Our doubts as caregivers and teachers are inevitable. If we have a system to refer to when these doubts creep in\, we can relax. \nLearn how to manage your classroom/learning environment with a practical\, simple curriculum based on Nonviolent Communication expert Gina Simm鈥檚 book Heart to Heart: Three Systems for Staying Connected (A Manual for Parents and Teachers). Through participating in this course\, you鈥檒l learn how to use practical systems to maintain the heart-to-heart connections that support children鈥檚 ability to self-regulate and improve their emotional intelligence. \nParticipants are encouraged (though not required) to purchase instructor Gina Simm鈥檚 book\, Heart to Heart: Three Systems for Staying Connected (A Manual for Parents and Teachers).* \nPROGRAM BENEFITS \nLearn how to manage conflict in your classroom \nBuild an understanding of Nonviolent Communication methods \nUnderstand the power of children鈥檚 books to support social-emotional learning (SEL) \nRecognize the difference between empathy and problem solving \nTransform your learning environment! \nTOPICS COVERED \nThis course provides a full social-emotional curriculum based on Nonviolent Communication principles.

Her background in Montessori education and children鈥檚 theater launched her into the world of public schools where she spent most of her career as a first-grade teacher (including a year spent teaching English in China). Simm worked closely with Miki Kashtan\, a co-founder of Bay Area Nonviolent Communication. Simm鈥檚 knowledge of Nonviolent Communication has transformed her classroom into a place where systems of the heart create a child-centered environment for moving through conflict.
