Very helpful course for anyone struggling to be hopeful or manage their emotions during this pandemic. Although this course was designed for educators, it's helpful even if you aren't one.

Really helpful for anyone who interacts with others. I took this course to help with social emotional needs of my students but it's really helping the social emotional needs of my family too!

Timely reminder of concepts I know but am lax on applying. Supportive content that further equips me for emotional success in myself and my students. Provides tools for reflection and application.

This course put into perspective many of the emotions and topics I was not able to identify. I believe that this course and the topics we covered will prove beneficial for many more years.

This was the most awesome course of the times! Yale University was so prompt in equipping teachers, managers and students for the likely stress COVID 19 was bound to plunge them into. Bravo!

The course is practical with good tools for everyday life too. It is very uesful for parents to learn too as part of the participatory and emotionally connected partners with schools.

The course is very good and help you to improve your skills mainly in self-awareness. but it in general talks a lot about schools and children in schools, so you feel like it is more for teachers.
