" I really enjoyed the Strengthening Resilience, Confidence, and Mindfulness for Teen Wellbeing course. The information was clear, practical, and easy to apply in the classroom. I liked how the course gave real examples and simple strategies that I can use straight away with my students. It made me think more about how important small, everyday actions are for building student wellbeing. I feel more confident now in supporting my students’ emotional health and helping them develop the tools they need to face challenges. Overall, it was a very helpful and positive learning experience."
