Self-Led Classrooms Part 2 with Tim Amaral
Manage episode 490368578 series 3552009
In this powerful follow-up episode, trauma therapist John Clarke welcomes back Tim Amaral, an award-winning adult educator and creator of the Self-Led Learning model. Together, they explore how traditional education systems often undermine a student's sense of worth—and what it looks like to build classrooms rooted in connection, self-worth, and authentic community. Tim shares profound insights on how trauma-informed education can transform lives, why belonging is the foundation of learning, and what happens when students are finally seen and valued for who they are, not just what they achieve.
3 Key Takeaways:
What if education isn't about becoming someone, but honoring who you already are?
Why removing threats isn’t enough—true safety in classrooms comes from connection.
The secret power of allowing students to be exactly who they are—without agenda.
