Description
Summary:Teachers need to relate to students in caring and committed ways, which can be personally and emotionally challenging. Enhancing teachers' social-emotional competences (SECs) is a pathway to fostering these kinds of relationships.

TAC helps teachers notice their emotional responses in the classroom and respond thoughtfully guided by professional values.
