Emotional Regulation Course!

The Educators Challenges this Course helps with:

  • Difficulty managing disruptive behaviours stemming from poor emotional regulation in students with autism, ADHD, ODD, PDA, and OCD.
  • Struggling to teach self-awareness and self-management skills to neurodiverse students in a busy classroom environment.
  • Uncertainty about aligning teaching strategies with official curricula like ACARA and NESA PDHPE for students with diverse needs.
  • Challenges in helping students identify and articulate their emotions, particularly those with limited emotional literacy.
  • Difficulty teaching neurodiverse students to recognize physical manifestations of emotions in their bodies.
  • Struggling to create individualized strategies that cater to each neurodiverse student’s unique needs and preferences.
  • Limited resources and materials specifically designed for teaching emotional regulation to neurodiverse students in a classroom setting.
