Rapport

Just as engine oil prevents your car's gears from grinding, rapport eases every student interaction. In those crucial moments when you need to push your students, keep them accountable, etc., your rapport with the student is often the difference between sinking and swimming. 

We draw on the Establish, Maintain, Restore (EMR) model's research base. It feels defeating when you know that relationships are vital to student achievement, yet you still find yourself butting heads. EMR empowers educators to take realistic steps to optimize student rapport, regardless of current status.
