Tailored Emotional Instruction takes into account interpersonal differences and adapts itself to the learners` profile according to their various attributes and needs through constructing optimal teaching methods for all learners in the classroom. This teaching style is based on principles of high-level recognition, efficacious dialogue, psycho-pedagogic knowledge, mapping and adaptive teaching for the learners. The approach focuses on complete attentiveness towards the learner, collaboration between learners and teacher in choosing learning objectives and the manner in which they are to be attained though enhancing the learners` sense of capability and providing success-oriented experiences.

The principles of this approach are crucial for all teachers. It is imperative that teachers receive comprehensive training regarding the approach including on- and offsite demonstration of the various teaching methods corresponding with teachers` diverse learning styles a well as the students`. In addition, with the assistance of an instructor, teachers will learn to conduct an ongoing liaison between parents, students and school staff.

In this lecture, we will demonstrate the principles of the approach in the disciplines of writing and sensory integration. Writing is a vital discipline for learning. Students who have difficulties in this discipline will find it difficult to fulfil assignments in school, which can negatively affect their sense of capability. Research findings of a study conducted in an elementary school, combining meta-cognitive intervention according to the TEI approach will be presented.
