Do you recognize this?

  1. The energy between you and a pupil feels off. You notice you are shutting him out just to stay grounded.
  2. A colleague is always late to meetings. When you bring this up, she gets defensive.
  3. Things are not flowing at school, and you start to think it is your fault. You work harder and harder, but nothing changes.


If any of this resonates, this online class is for you.


Theme online class

Authentic Communication in School is a practical session about self-trust, speaking up, and staying connected — without losing yourself.


We often get confused and will go to great lenghts to “keep the relationship intact.” That can lead us to avoid conversations altogether, or to say things that don’t land the way we intended. Communicating in schools — with students, parents, and colleagues — is truly an art in itself.


It took me years to grow from avoiding or reacting too sharply, to using techniques that bring calm and create space — for the other person and for myself. That is where the most beautiful moments of connection arise.


What you will walk away with

This class offers more than ideas — it gives you simple, powerful tools you can apply right away to strengthen your conversations with pupils, parents and colleagues:

✔️Two core principles of authentic communication  — so you can speak from calm and courage

✔️Tools to improve your interactions without needing “difficult conversations”

✔️More ease and presence in your professional relationships


Testimonials

I have enjoyed Hélène’s enthusiasm as well as her pedagogical and international experience. Our teachers, parents and children loved the mindfulness seminars.

Aphrodite Vati, deputy mayor for tourism, W-Lesvos, Greece

Hélène is fantastic. She organises the study trip for refugee teachers pleasantly. She creates a casual, warm atmosphere and dares to think outside the box. Everything Hélène shares is evidence of taking inner leadership.

Thank you very much for the very pleasant and professional cooperation!

About Hélène van Oudheusden


Hélène van Oudheusden is a Dutch pedagogical leadership mentor and consciousness trainer. She empowers teachers navigating changes and seemingly complex challenges.


I know what it is like to feel stuck in a school culture that no longer fits who you have become on the inside. Allow me to guide you to the place where you belong.

Teachings and trainings are rooted in ancient wisdom from Indigenous traditions, and draw on contemporary practices from pedagogy, psychology, mindfulness, shamanism and mythology.
