Description
Class Experience
Pre-Teen girls will learn that Self-Confidence is the best outfit they will ever wear. With social media and powerful influencers all around us, it’s really easy for everyone to be constantly comparing ourselves to the “ideal” that are presented right in front of us all of the time. This is why it’s so important for preteens to be confident enough to know who they are and make decisions for themselves. preteens who are insecure are more likely to give into peer pressure or be influenced by their surroundings because they might not have the courage to speak up or might feel like it will help them fit in. Insecure adults tend to be softer spoken and it's important that kids grow up to be powerful and successful in their own way. That is why it’s crucial that preteens start learning how to love themselves and feel good about themselves as young as they can. Preteens need to learn skills to be strong enough to not give into societal pressure. They need to know that they don’t need to be passive and not feel enough before those insecurities take over them. Confident preteens grow up to be confident adults! **PLEASE NOTE: this class is very much so conversational base, students are encouraged to join in on conversation as we work through the workbooks, share ideas and give support to one another.
I hold a Masters in Social Work (MSW), I have worked as a Social Worker in a girl's residential unit for over 4 years, my goal as their counselor was focused on assisting them in achieving their personal goals, learning life skills and building their self- confidence. I also have a daughter (she is an adult now), so I have personal experience raising a girl and as a girl myself I know how it feels to have the pressure to be perfect and struggle to try to fit in.
