The master class "Difficult Behavior: How to deal with it mindfully" focuses on dealing effectively and mindfully with different forms of difficult behavior. As a trainer of the "Aandacht Werkt!" method, you may encounter challenging behavior from children during lessons, but also with parents, teachers, colleagues or clients outside. This refresher course offers insights and practical tools for dealing with these situations, both inside and outside the classroom.

Purpose of the master class
The goal of this master class is to make you aware of the different types of difficult behavior you may encounter in your work and to learn how to deal with them professionally and mindfully. We explore how your own perception of behavior plays a role, and offer a practical model with which you learn to distinguish behavior that you can change from behavior that you need to stop (also mindfully). You will get tools to deal with difficult behavior and identify which behaviors should not be tolerated.
For whom is this workshop intended?
This master class is intended for trainers of the "Attention Works!" method who encounter challenging behavior in their classes or in their work. These can be trainers who work with children, but also professionals who have contact with parents, teachers, colleagues or clients. In addition, the training is very suitable for anyone who wants to learn to deal mindfully with difficult behavior in a professional setting.

"I found the refresher training "dealing with difficult behavior" a fine training, because there was room for theory and background of difficult behavior, very practical tools were given and attention to personal situations in the small groups. Nice to be able to follow in the evening from home and online."

"Masterclass troublesome behavior is an informative and practical training. You can immediately apply the information in the workplace. Also, this training is nice as awareness and compassion for yourself. What is my part as a teacher in the whole when dealing with difficult behavior. Highly recommended!"

"Effective in-service training to come to mindful handling of (difficult) behavior for yourself. It makes you think about how you act and talk to the children in your class. And this gives you awareness to be more patient before you talk or act."
