The workshop focused on the crucial role that teachers play in shaping students’ self-perception, emotional well-beingand academic motivation. Ms Tandon highlighted how positive teacher-student interactions, empathetic communication and recognition of individual strengths can significantly influence a student’s self-esteem and overall development.
Through a combination of theoretical insights, practical strategiesand interactive activities, the session empowered educators to reflect on their own classroom practices. Key areas discussed included the power of constructive feedback, the need to create inclusive and non-judgmental learning environments and the importance of modelling self-confidence and a growth mindset in daily teaching.
