Self-Compassion for Teachers

This course has pushed me to reflect on my experiences, be vulnerable, and has made me more open minded. There are so many strategies that I am excited to take away with me. It was beneficial to apply my new learnings and practices to current and future scenarios along with think about how I would support a fellow colleague or student in the same scenario. I also enjoyed being able to practice these exercises with my students and learn together. The professor was SO supportive and helpful. She wrote amazing responses and was so involved. For a virtual course, she did a great job in immersing herself in my assignments and experience. The only concern was that the forums felt like full-assignments rather than discussion boards, so it felt overwhelming at times, but otherwise, I highly recommend!

This was such a relevant class. I gained insights, wisdom, and learned practices to help not only myself but my family members, students, and colleagues. Every assignment was practical and meaningful, and the readings and videos were applicable to daily life. I enjoyed this class very much, and wish Dr. Burchard offered more like it!

This was such a great course to navigate as the pandemic was ending. Getting more in-tune with ourselves and learning not just how to use self-compassion in our own lives, but sharing it with our students is an invaluable resource. The materials presented in this class provide a great way to incorporate self-compassion and empathy in my own classroom, and Dr. Burchard is a wonderful instructor with care in every aspect of this course.
