Join America House Kyiv Education in Emergencies this week for our final session! We will be wrapping up this course by discussing the SEE learning content from the previous weeks and how to integrate the lessons we learned in our future educational group environments. We will be practicing answering the capstone questionnaire together before completing it individually.

If students are able to understand others’ emotions and behaviors in context, they will be able to empathize with others better. This in turn can lead to feeling more connected with others, and thus less isolated and lonely. Moreover, the ability to understand others better and cultivate a caring attitude towards others parallels the same process of understanding and caring for themselves better. Join us this week to learn all about it!

"Education in Emergencies" is a virtual program to provide Ukrainian educators with the necessary skills and tools for virtual and in-person teaching during wartime and crisis situations. Based on the materials developed throughout the "Education in Emergencies" workshop series, the program will provide participants with a safe space to exchange ideas and experiences while learning new methods.

Understanding emotions can be very empowering for us. We experience emotions all the time, yet often may not understand what is happening inside ourselves. Learning about emotions can make these experiences less unfamiliar and eventually easier to manage. Join us on Monday to learn about how we can become more knowledgable about our emotions and in turn be more aware of them as well as our students' emotions in the classroom.

Do you find it difficult to focus your attention when there are so many things going around you? Attention training has numerous benefits for us and our students. Join us this week to learn how attention is not cultivated through force of will, but by repeatedly and gently cultivating opportunities for practice, just like any other skill.

Are individuals born resistant, or is it something that is learned? If you are interested in finding out the answer to this question, join English Language Resident, Meagan, to discuss and learn!
