A practical workshop where educators explore the basics of anxiety and panic attacks in students. Learn coping strategies to help them work through panic and achieve better success.

Learn basic coping strategies to help your students work through test-related panic so they achieve better success, and find strategies to help the entire classroom engage in helpful well-being behaviors. Lunch is included in the workshop.
