FOR TEACHERS

Avodah

Description

Teachers have been carrying a heavy load for the last few years that goes way beyond just being a teacher. From moving to online learning, navigating new challenges with teaching and learning, and supporting students social and emotional needs, teachers have been the rock to hold everything together as front line workers. This session will recognize the challenges teachers continue to face and will provide tools to boost morale, provide some self-care and empower teachers to face whatever is to come with confidence and strength.
