Resilience is the progression of adjusting or adapting excellently in the face of trauma, adversity, threats, tragedies, financial stressors, school issues or relationship problems. Moreover, it is the procedure for overcoming difficult experiences. According to researchers, resilience is ordinary and not extraordinary since sadness, and emotional pain is common in individuals that suffer major trauma or adversity in their lives (Grissom, 2015). However, resilience cannot be defined as a trait since it involves actions, behaviors, and thoughts that can be developed and learned.
Teachers can help students through making connections and close relationships with each other in the learning environment. Moreover, teachers should shun seeing crisis as insurmountable challenges. This is because, it is challenging to change the fact of a highly stressful occurrence; nevertheless, an individual can change the manner of responding to and interpreting events. In school environs, teachers should engage students in activities that are relaxing and enjoyable. In addition to that, teachers should guide the students in moving towards their goals for an individual to take a decisive decision.
Furthermore, students should be made aware of the importance of accepting change as a part of human existence. The acceptance of situations that can never be changed will help students to keep the focus on circumstances that can be altered (Brooks & Goldstein, 2008).

Teachers can help students to look for opportunities which may act as self-discovery platforms. Many students have experience with hardship and tragedies, strong individuals report a greater sense of own potency, better connection relationships, increasing the sense of self-worthiness, and have a heightened appreciation for life.
To conclude, teachers should guide students on how to keep things in perspective. By this, an individual should learn to consider stressful moments despite facing painful events. It can be through maintaining an optimistic outlook which can enable an individual to expect better things in one’s life.
