In this course, we’ll explore how to build healthy relationships, develop emotional intelligence, and navigate the complexities of health and well-being as a teenager. We’ll discuss key topics such as emotional authenticity, communication, conflict resolution, and self-awareness, all within the context of fostering meaningful connections in the classroom. We will also focus on stress management, helping students understand its role and providing practical tools to cope with it effectively. This course offers a space for sharing, listening, and reflecting. We encourage students to meet individually with their instructor to get to know them better and to discuss course material and any additional topics that are relevant.
