In today’s educational landscape, social-emotional learning (SEL) has emerged as a critical component of an educator’s daily academic routine. By adopting a co-active coaching approach, educators can create a supportive and inclusive classroom environment that nurtures the whole child. This collaborative approach empowers students to foster community building, self-discovery, and personal agency, thereby cultivating essential social-emotional skills such as self-awareness, self-expression, and relationship skills (CASEL, n.d.) Integrating co-active coaching principles into their teaching practices can bridge the gap between academic achievement and emotional aptitude, ultimately leading to holistic student development and wellbeing.
