About Personality Academy

Personality Academy is dedicated to helping students, parents, and teachers communicate more effectively. It provides an essential vocabulary that helps you comprehend and discus the way you see the world and how you interact with others. 

The compulsion to “grasp for pleasure and avoid pain” is strong in all of us from a very young age. The goal of Social Emotional Learning is to overcome these compulsions to develop self-knowledge, self-restraint, and compassion for others.

Personality Academy offers a practical study of human behavior with powerful techniques for acquiring self-knowledge. It promotes an attitude of curiosity towards understanding others.  

Emotional Intelligence is the capability of individuals to use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior to achieve success in life. Emotional literacy is not fixed at birth, it can be developed over time.
The first step is identifying and labeling one’s own emotions.

Emotional Intelligence and Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

With practice, one’s ability to discriminate between different emotions will improve. Then comes a greater awareness of one’s own and other people’s emotions as circumstances unfold. Ultimately, one’s aptitude for self-regulation of emotions naturally improves.

Emotional Intelligence is a combination of Intrapersonal and Interpersonal Intelligences as defined by Howard Gardner in his Theory of Multiple Intelligences

Personality Education provides an awareness of the needs and values of ourselves and others.

Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

Compassionate Communication is a process for working through the conflict that arises when two individuals have contrasting strategies for having their own needs and values met.

Combining elements from Compassionate Communication and Personality Education provides a powerful avenue for reframing perspectives, opening up lines of communication, and increasing emotional intelligence.

Successful cooperative grouping fosters positive interdependence but also incorporates a sense of individual accountability and that’s something that can be gained when we allow students to self-assess and share and communicate their preferences, powers, and their purpose.
