Take your teaching and mentoring to the next level with coyote mentoring – a proven, nature-based method that creates deeply engaging, transformational learning experiences. In this immersive training, Living Earth School shares the foundational tools and philosophy behind coyote mentoring, the core methodology that powers our award-winning programs for youth, teens and adults. You’ll learn how to guide learning and growth in a way that sparks curiosity, builds confidence, and fosters a meaningful connection to the natural world. By observing the natural flow of the days and seasons, you’ll come away feeling inspired to plan a meeting, a program, or a lesson plan that works with rather than against our human nature. In addition to learning this model, you’ll simply have a lot of fun outside engaging with “primary satisfactions” like making fire, nibbling on edible plants, and puzzling over a mysterious animal track. This course is ideal for teachers, parents, homeschool educators, mentors, outdoor educators, and community leaders who want to create more impactful, relationship-centered learning environments. While rooted in nature connection, these mentoring principles are widely applicable in classrooms, workplaces, and everyday life. Participants who complete the program will receive a certificate of completion.

Their approach is grounded in how people naturally learn – through curiosity, storytelling, and hands-on experience.
