Your Top 10 Behaviour Management Challenges and How to Tackle Them with Andrew Fuller
Course Writers
Andrew Fuller is a clinical psychologist and family therapist. He has worked in many schools and communities in Australia and internationally, specialising in the wellbeing of young people and their families. He is a fellow of the Department of Psychiatry and the Department of Learning and Educational Development at the University of Melbourne. Andrew is the author of Tricky Kids, Guerilla Tactics for Teachers, Help Your Child Succeed at School, Raising Real People, From Surviving to Thriving, Work Smarter Not Harder and Beating Bullies and has co-authored a series of programs for the promotion of emotional resilience and intelligence used in over 3500 schools in Britain and Australia called The Heart Masters.
Andrew has established programs for the promotion of mental health in schools, substance abuse prevention, and the reduction of violence and bullying, suicide prevention programs and for assisting homeless young people. Andrew continues to counsel young people, and he also conducts workshops for organisations, parents, students, teachers and health professionals on a wide range of topics.
Helen started as a primary school teacher in Brisbane, but her education career has led her overseas, underground, through forests and along beaches. Helen has taught in a wide range of classrooms, from bush-kinders to university lecture halls, virtual classrooms, penguin-filled beaches, snowy mountain tops, the decks of boats, 300m underground while hanging from a rope, and the scariest place of all, the standard Australian year 9 classroom.
Currently, Helen is applying her 22 years of educational experience as Education Manager at Cool.org. Here, she gets to do what she loves best - bringing the real world into the classroom. By working with sustainability industry organisations, she creates teaching resources that share the enthusiasm, passion, and knowledge of experts with schools. Students get to apply knowledge and skills to real-world situations, teachers get ready-made, easy-to-use resources, and everyone gets to work together towards a brighter, more sustainable future. Win-win!
