In December 2023, Taskeen conducted a two-day teacher training in collaboration with Evolution and its Wellness Club Vertical. This unique collaboration brought together the expertise of Taskeen in mental health and well-being with Evolution’s commitment to holistic education and support for educators from diverse backgrounds. The training focused on providing teachers with an enriching experience through the first two levels of Taskeen’s School Wellbeing Program.
Through Day 1, educators gained a fundamental understanding of stress and well-being, equipping them with practical tools to manage their well-being and navigate moments of distress, followed by the introduction of mindfulness and an exploration of communication styles. Day 2 delved into essential topics such as managing student stress and empathetic listening with role-playing scenarios to enhance their support skills. The training concluded with a pivotal session on work-life balance and self-care, acknowledging the crucial role teachers play in both the classroom and their personal lives.
Led by Taskeen’s COO, Dr Taha Sabri, each session was dynamic and engaging, featuring small group discussions, role plays, and thoughtfully curated audio-visual content. This collaboration between Taskeen and Evolution aimed to empower teachers with valuable tools and insights for fostering a positive and supportive learning environment. We look forward to continued collaboration in pursuit of nurturing both educators and students on their wellbeing journeys.
