In this social skills class students will learn that people often communicate with their body language and facial expressions. They will also learn how to get the "jitters" out and confidently join in or initiate conversation with others.

This class is instructional. There is limited interaction between learners. Students are encouraged to answer questions and participate in the class. The class is not a social club. Students will not be doing practice during the class, but will be encouraged to practice after the class with information on the best scenarios to practice what they have learned.

Parental Guidance
This class is often fully booked. I cannot make transfers to another class unless the request is made 48 hours in advance, unless there is an emergency situation. Students are looking for spaces in the class and it is unfair to those students if I move students last minute. Thank you for understanding.
