What are your biggest challenges

Managing difficult behaviour is one of the biggest challenges for parents and educators. Many families and teachers want to know how to deal with persistent challenging behaviour. Commonly used strategies such as praising, rewarding, redirecting, ignoring, reasoning, consequences, etc., may not be sufficient in resolving behaviour challenges with some children. Parents and teachers experiencing this problematic behaviour often feel overwhelmed and unsupported.

In this masterclass you will learn...

What works and what doesn´t!

Learn what causes challenging behaviour...

Learn what causes challenging behaviour and why understanding the cause of the behaviour is essential before any interventions are initiated.

Know how to respond when an incident occurs...

Know how to respond when an incident occurs. Be prepared to handle difficult situations by reacting and responding calmly and with a planned strategy.

Get practical and easy-to-implement strategies...

Get practical and easy-to-implement strategies that will encourage your child to engage and cooperate in daily activities at home and the classroom, and prevent incidents from happening.

My son is autistic and non-verbal, and this has given me some fantastic ways to help him in situations where he is feeling overwhelmed.

Why I'm running this Masterclass.

As educators and parents, we experience many situations where we find our children's behaviour challenging.
As a mum and educator, I also face many situations like this.
Responding to difficult situations is part of parenting and teaching children.
When challenging behaviours occur, knowing what to do matters.
Our responses can help alleviate the situation or worsen it without us even being aware.
In this Masterclass, I want to help you understand why problematic behaviour happens and how to respond to it in a caring and compassionate manner. But more importantly, how to support children so that they thrive at home and in school.

If you have any questions about this workshop, or want to know more about me, feel free to contact me.

I have listened to other webinars and lectures on behaviour management and in 1 hour you managed to give me more insight, tips and explanations than the rest of them put together.
