Abstract

Verbal aggressiveness has a particularly hindering effect on children’s personality development. Since children spend most of their time at school, this institution has the most effect on students’ personality development. Therefore, it is of crucial importance how teachers communicate, solve conflicts with students and thus what example teachers set for students of an emotionally intelligent way of speech. It is essential that children with a family background where this example is not set at home would learn about this new way of communication at school. This idea is supported by the training that introduces the basics of nonviolent communication with the help of experience-based learning to a group of adolescents. Trying the presented exercises might contribute to creating a community that is able to cooperate and successfully manage conflicts.
