“Amazing wisdom that helps the children and parents win in the game of life”

SFK has an awesome concept of sharing the wisdom to help the children and the parents to elevate their consciousness to win this life we have in this world. I am definitely very excited about sharing this program to my community.

Maria P.

“Program for children in every classroom”

I look forward to sharing this program as much as I can with as many avenues as I can. Thank you for the guidance through all of the concepts and putting together a program for children that I feel should be in every classroom!!!!

“Teaching the SFK programs gave me the opportunity to heal my childhood issues and traumas”

The magical thing about teaching SFK is the opportunity it gave me to heal my own childhood issues and traumas, I started to become more fun and light with myself and others. Naturally creating a simple spiritual dialogue to relate to others, awakened a desire to have children of my own to have the same dialogue with them (which I have and do now). SFK gave me a platform to teach spirituality to teenagers, parents and adults many different platforms and settings.

Jay Kemal, Teacher, London UK

“Among the many other coaching tools, the SFK curriculum is my first stop in working with students”

The SFK curriculum has given me a foundation, plan, and vocabulary to guide my students and clients through situations and challenges; important opportunities to become a better version of themselves, they would have otherwise let slip by unnoticed. In my practice, although I have access to many other coaching tools, this by far is my first stop in working with clients. I believe if parents and children truly understand and can apply the tools learned in the SFK curriculum, they will be able to live a life of open dialogue, utilize every challenge they encounter as an opportunity, and truly connect to their power to make a difference in the world through their own winning in the game of life.

Hannah Hernandez, New York City, NY

“The SFK program has touched the hearts of kids of different backgrounds and ages in schools, non-profit organizations, factories, and hospitals”

I have seen the SFK program touch the hearts of everybody no matter where they come from. I have taught SFK to kids in schools, in non-profit organizations, in factories, and at hospitals; These kids were from different backgrounds (low income to high income), from violent and non-violent environments, ranging from 7 till 58 years old! (because even adults have an inner child) – all with the same result: the child, or the inner child in a grownup, realizes that they have a wonderful LIGHT within and that they do not have to look for it outside themselves. They learn there are rules and easy-to-use tools that will help them live and share a rich and fulfilled life.

Cecilia Rivero, Teacher, Guatemala

“It impacts the world on the seed level”

There are many organizations doing meaningful work that impacts the world for the better. Spirituality for Kids stands out to me because it impacts the world on the seed level; consciousness. Children who grow up with healthy self-worth, self-regulation, and true care for others, grow into adults who show up in the world with more to give and less to take. This is the power of SFK.

Kate T.

“Each lesson brought valuable changes not only to the children but to myself as well”

I had the pleasure of teaching a class of children ages 6-11 in Miami every Sunday for 12 weeks. Each and every lesson brought valuable information to not only the children but to myself as well. Coming up with examples, even on the spot, was such an easy task simply because I could apply the SFK curriculum to my own life. After being able to teach this class, I can say that when I come across different situations throughout my day, I naturally refer back to the SFK curriculum and use it! Every time we met in class, I could see a shift in the children I taught.

Ariel Auerbach, Miami, Florida

“SFK has been a transforming experience in my own life and the life of my family, far beyond what I could imagine”

I’ve had the blessing and fortune of achieving though SFK what I desire to do for my students. I finally found a way of bringing about change for the children, but SFK has also been a transforming experience in my own life and the life of my family, far beyond what I could imagine. Now, as a facilitator trainer, I have the opportunity to duplicate the ability to plant seeds that will reach more and more children around the world. I want them to have the opportunity to live a fulfilled life regardless of their conditions and help make the world a better place.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

WHY GET CERTIFIED?

WHY GET CERTIFIED?

By participating in our certification course, you will gain leadership and communication skills to better help children develop empathy, grit, and confidence. You will have a proven curriculum, and insider tips on how to support the children through it in the optimal way. The skills you learn from SFK will be a boon in all parts of life, personal and professional.

Once you have been accepted, you will gain access to our online certification course. You can work through the modules at your own pace, and we will receive notification once you have finished the course and completed your final test.

First of all – cutting-edge educational best practices, a toolkit of leadership and communication skills, and lesson-by-lesson tips and guidelines. Additionally, one of the core aims of the training is to give you the opportunity to go through the SFK curriculum, just like a child, so you can do the work yourself before teaching it to others. To be able to walk the talk, you need to have internalized it first. Thus, we believe that part of being a good teacher is to be a student first.

Experience in teaching children is preferable. That being said, passion and good rapport with kids are key! So if the candidate has no prior experience but a great desire to teach SFK’s social-emotional learning skills, a passion for helping children thrive, and is able to demonstrate an affinity for working with them, then that’s more than sufficient. Our training program will walk you through everything you need to make you a confident and successful facilitator.

Once you’re a certified SFK Facilitator, you’ll be able to teach SFK’s Level One Course to large groups of children in your schools and communities.

When teaching your own kids, you already have a sense of familiarity and comfort. Teaching in a group setting to kids you may not know at all requires sensitivities and skills that differ from family settings – especially when it comes to the tougher topics. SFK-certified Facilitators are equipped with the necessary communication, collaboration, and listening skills to successfully teach the SFK concepts to any child in any setting.

We welcome teachers, coaches, professionals who work with kids and families, parents, and anyone who is passionate about teaching social-emotional learning skills to children.

ABOUT SFK

ABOUT SFK

No, SFK is not religious. It is a secular social-emotional learning program. From the beginning, SFK has served all faiths and those who do not have a faith affiliation equally. Children from families that identify as Muslim, Christian, and Jewish, “Spiritual but Not Religious,” and atheist have all participated and had the same positive outcomes.

We are aware that the word “spirituality” means different things to different people. When some think of “spirituality,” it relates to ancient religious traditions rooted in faith. To others, it means secular meditation and a practice of mindfulness in day to day life. We honor and celebrate whatever it means to you currently! Nothing we offer in our lessons will conflict with anyone’s belief system on the full spectrum of orthodoxy to atheism.

What we refer to as “spirituality” is simply the part of the child that is not the body and the mind. The ineffable, beautiful, unique “spirit” (in SFK we call it “Light”) that is inside of every child. It is the deeper, purpose-and-compassion driven core of who they each are. We seek to educate and nourish this part.

A “social-emotional education” teaches social-emotional skills. These skills include the ability to manage emotions, see challenges as opportunities, successfully communicate, behave appropriately, and recognize how one’s actions impact those around them.

Every child is equally at risk in this complex and ever-changing world, and the SFK program was developed to serve them all equally. From affluent areas of Miami, NYC and London, to impoverished areas of Rio de Janeiro and rural villages in Africa – SFK has improved lives. It is considered best for kids between the ages of 6-12.

SFK courses can be done online, from anywhere with an adult, OR through physical classes taught by a Certified SFK Facilitator. To do the courses online, you sign up, you log in, and you start learning! To attend physical classes, you write to us to inquire about classes taught by Certified SFK Facilitators in your own vicinity.

RAND honored the SFK program for exemplary outcomes in categories including communication, learning and study skills, behavior and attention – among others. Read more.

SFK is a global non-profit that seeks to spread social-emotional education to every child, everywhere. In accordance with that mission, SFK charges those in communities (like the US) where the population can afford to pay and uses that revenue to subsidize the programs they offer for free in developing nations where children need to not only be offered the classes, but internet and laptops as well.

So far SFK has been taught in 22 countries and translated into 5 different languages. We have helped more than 67,000 children worldwide and are reaching out to more communities all the time.

SFK was founded in 2002 by a group of like-minded mothers, educators, and mental health professionals. They saw that some of the most critical life skills were being left out of traditional education and decided to do something about it.

From the very beginning SFK has been completely supported by an ever-expanding group of dedicated donors, ambassadors, and volunteers. Our global community of donors and ambassadors are the ones who have seen the program’s results first hand.
