Becoming the Educator They Need: Strategies, Mindsets and Beliefs for Supporting Male Black and Latino Students

Black and Latino Males are the most misunderstood, suspended and expelled students in K-12 Schools in the U.S. It's important to understand the thought process of these young men in order to educate them more effectively. Many of these young men live in fear daily and it comes out in negative ways in their interactions at school. This interactive session will give strategies to teach educators and administrators how to become the educator these young men need including affirming them, speaking positive words, teaching them to control emotions, and how to turn hard skills into soft skills.
