"Frustration's primary purpose is to effect change. There'd be no reason for change if we were satisfied with the status quo. Frustration provides notice to the problem-solving brain that something isn't working. It also provides motivation to effect change of some kind in the hopes that if change happens, it will somehow fix the problem. The problem is that there are so many things that we are up against that cannot be changed."

-Dr. Gordon Neufeld.

Teachers: has a “disengaged” student ever surprised you once you built real trust with them?
Our research on the Teachability Factor™ found that when teachers focus on relationship over behaviour management, disaffected learners often re-engage — sometimes dramatically.
This is exactly what we dig into at our upcoming PD day with Dr. Gordon Neufeld 👇

Did you know there’s real research behind “just build the relationship first”?

Our own research explores how attachment links to mental health, behaviour, and learning — and how caring adults can protect, guide, and nurture children through everyday moments, not grand gestures.

Curious? Dive into our research page (link in bio/comments) 📚

Better still, attend our upcoming professional development training for educators!
