Teaching With Heart: Using Compassion-Based Paradigms and Language That Connects—Not Commands

  • Chalkfarm Public School, Toronto District School Board North York (map)

In this practical and inspiring session for elementary educators, we’ll explore how to shift from traditional control-based communication toward a more compassionate, connection-centered approach. Rooted in principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), this workshop offers simple yet powerful tools to reframe everyday interactions—reducing power struggles, deepening trust, and helping students develop self-awareness and responsibility.

Walk away with strategies you can use right away to create a more respectful, emotionally safe, and collaborative classroom culture—one conversation at a time.
