What do proponents of Positive Psychology and English language teachers have in common? Both aim for an individual to flourish. Positive Psychology is a branch of psychology which studies a person's well-being, focuses on a person's strengths and takes a proactive and holistic approach towards mental health. Incorporating tools from this field in the language learning classroom can help create a positive learning environment and boost a student's motivation and self-esteem. In this workshop, participants can discover activities and resources related to Positive Psychology which they can use in their own classrooms.
