Why Attend This Webinar?

Every teacher knows the tension of facing an anxious email or a parent meeting that keeps you up at night. At the same time, we are supposed to be partners with parents and sometimes that can feel really hard to do.

These moments can be as frustrating as they are inevitable. And yet, as essential as it is to manage these moments effectively, educators rarely get strategies from research AND real world experience to transform them into positive interactions. 

Please join educator and social dynamics expert Rosalind Wiseman in this interactive 75-minute webinar that will equip you with actionable strategies—including practical, ready-to-use scripts—to approach every parent interaction with confidence, whether the conversation is routine, difficult, or just plain scary.

The session will be recorded, and registered participants may request the recording after the event. Groups may also schedule a 30-minute follow-up session for an additional fee by contacting us via email.
