During this week our colleague Patricia is part of a group of teachers from 8 different countries who together are learning the basics of Emotional Intelligence and its usefulness in conflict resolution and bullying prevention. Positive psychology and non-violent language are also part of the contents of the course that is taking place in Florence. With all this, and its subsequent dissemination to the rest of the teaching staff at Antonio de Mendoza Secondary School, the aim is to provide students with strategies and skills with which to improve their social relations and to manage their own emotions in a more positive and constructive way.
