Do you tend to shy away from interacting with the parents of your students? It’s just somehow uncomfortable to talk to them, so you’d rather avoid it altogether, even if you’re having issues with their child. However, little did you know that there is power in partnering with the parents for the good of the child..and possibly even for the eternal good of the child. This workshop will equip you with practical strategies for collaboration, including sharing information effectively, nurturing relationships, gaining parents’ trust, and keeping parents informed about their child’s progress. You will also learn practical strategies for effectively addressing student misbehavior with parents.
