 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life. Split is a perfect natural location!!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What  I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Thanks to the overwhelmingly positive feedback highlighting our trainers’ humor, optimism, and warmth, we are delighted to extend this expertise to educators across Europe. This course has been thoughtfully developed to share our signature approach: embracing positive teaching, where mindfulness, humor, and supportive collaboration cultivate classrooms full of energy, achievement, and genuine joy. Join us in making teaching a fulfilling and uplifting experience for educators everywhere.

Enter a learning space where positivity and well-being play a central role in the educational process. Beyond the traditional responsibilities of teaching, this course invites you to embark on a meaningful journey enriched with mindfulness, humor, optimism, teamwork, resilience, emotional awareness, empathy, and creative problem-solving.

Happiness and Positive Thinking

Imagine a learning environment where joy is as fundamental as instructional materials, and positive thinking becomes the driving force behind successful learning. Positive teaching begins with understanding that happiness can be both a personal intention and a practical teaching strategy. Immerse yourself in exploring how to build a positive mindset and create a classroom atmosphere where enthusiasm for learning spreads naturally among both teachers and students.

Igniting Passion for Learning

With empathy as a foundation, teachers become role models who awaken students’ passion for knowledge. By embracing mistakes as meaningful opportunities for growth, the course promotes a learning culture where educators and learners value the lessons that emerge from errors. Experience the transformative effect of positive teaching, where curiosity thrives, questions are welcomed, and discovery becomes a joyful part of every activity.

Designing Lessons Worth Celebrating

Unlock the full spectrum of your teaching potential by learning how to design lessons that leave a lasting impact. Explore the PERMA framework—Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment—and integrate these components into your daily practice. Infusing your lessons with these principles supports not only academic progress but also emotional well-being, meaningful participation, and a strong sense of achievement. Prepare for classes that feel rewarding and leave students eager for more.
