What is " — and why does it matter in teacher education?
In a time when educators are asked to teach, support, regulate, inspire, adapt and keep going, wellbeing can no longer remain a “soft” extra.
How can teachers
🚩recognise emotional signals before they become exhaustion?
🚩name stress as information, not failure?
🚩communicate needs with clarity and respect?
🚩build classroom cultures where students also learn the language of self-awareness, care and connection?
Because teaching is not just about content. It is relational work.
And outcomes are not only about knowledge, methodology and classroom technique.
They are also about educators who can stay present, human, connected and resilient in real educational life.
Today’s pre-conference webinar for Portugal facilitated by Effie Kyrikakis, the representative of TESOL Greece to APPI's 2026 Conference opens this vital conversation:
More will be explored at Effie's invited workshop in Aveiro, Portugal on the 10th of May.
"Wellbeing Literacy: The Emerging Life Skill for Teachers and Students in the AI Era"
A warm invitation to rethink teacher wellbeing not only as essential for teacher's own quality of life— but as preparation for sustainable, humane, flourishing educational communities.
