               Challenges faced in Social and Emotional Learning Methods


               1. Transforming from “me” to “we:”



               The traditional classroom setting grades students individually. When you’re promoting SEL, you
               are  encouraging  the  students  to  consider  the  team’s  success  as  their  own.  However,

               individualism has always been the main focus as they were growing up, so you will notice that

               some of the students will try to impose their opinions and authority. That is not a true leader’s
               attitude.
