TUF Life Skills
The Premier Social & Emotional Learning Curriculum

I am the Student Success Coach and Peer Counseling teacher at Spoto High School in Florida. My primary job is to work with students that struggle in the areas of attendance, discipline, and academics. While working with these student’s interventions are put in place to help them achieve the goals that they set for themselves in each area. This year I had the opportunity to teach 3 classes of Peer counseling that included the same students that I serve on my Peer Counseling caseload. When presented with the opportunity to switch to the online TUF SEL curriculum the decision was easy and I saw the positive impact from the beginning. Students were truly engaged in TUF’sreal life lessons and during class discussions students opened up and actually shared their life experiences. Throughout the day I would hear students talk about how they used strategies that they learned in class to make good decisions. The lessons, the discussions, and the brainstorming of action steps helped facilitate an environment in the classroom that welcomed everyone no matter what situations you have been through or currently going through. Students also realized that they were not alone when it came to the life experiences they had to endure. Bonds were formed but above all students learned about themselves and felt more confident using the life skills they had learned.

We are so happy that we discovered the TUF SEL Curriculum! The courses are relevant and the learning experiences are engaging – our middle school students look forward to using the platform each day. The concept of creating your “own brand” has positively impacted our school culture. It has provided an authentic way to promote social & emotional competencies. By encouraging students to think about “their brand” and how decisions affect their brand, we have been able to teach decision making, self-awareness, social awareness and relationship skills in a way that relates to their middle school lives. We are proud to be using a developmentally responsive curriculum that is rooted in the CASEL competencies and our students are connecting to the interactive curriculum and real-life testimonials. We are confident that with the help of the TUF Curriculum students are internalizing the important life lessons that they are learning in middle school health class.
