Testimonials:

ELSOTA! is a wonderful, innovative tool—Emotion Literacy Advocates has created a fun, creative way for teachers to talk with students about their feelings. There is application in social/emotional health subjects as well as substance use prevention, family life and relationships, injury prevention and safety, disease prevention and control.

After observing some of this material in action, I can unequivocally say this teaching tool is of great value in the classroom.”
—Lisa Love, health education specialist for Seattle Public Schools

“It is wonderful to learn a new idea and even more wonderful to have lived it these past six months—simple, yet profound, used and useful—from ELSOTA! (Emotion Literacy School ON THE AIR):
Is your/my behavior now hiding feelings or expressing feelings?
Thanks.”
—Wm Waldman, M.D.

ELSOTA! is such a useful program. It provides much needed tools for identifying feelings that have been unknown and then learning constructive ways to use them. The examples given are clear and helpful. I would definitely suggest the use of ELSOTA! to my clients.

As a couple, we found that listening to the CD and then using the workbook helped us identify feelings in some challenging situations and find words to put to the feelings. This was an enjoyable, enlightening process.”
—Judith Waldman, LCSW-C, Psychotherapist
