One of the most important skills for a student is the ability to communicate effectively, clearly, and with confidence, whether speaking in front of the class or simply talking with a friend. The goal for this 3-day workshop is to encourage students who may struggle in social situations to see boosting your self-confidence or becoming more assertive as skill sets that anyone can develop or improve with consistent practice. 

I offer practical and easy-to-understand strategies allowing the student to ease into a more comfortable approach when engaging in conversation with others. Further, I encourage a class environment that is supportive and affirming, not tethered by pressure or expectation. Each meeting will be packed with information, including tips and tricks a student may copy and keep for future reference.     

The course schedule is as follows: 

Day 1:  Gaining More Self-Confidence 
Day 2:  Strategies and Tips for Being More Assertive 
Day 3:  Feeling More Comfortable and Confident in Social Situations
 
This class is ideal for students who may struggle in social situations, are reluctant to speak to or with others, and/or lack confidence in themselves. I strive to help students realize their potential in a positive and constructive manner, allowing them to recognize their accomplishments and learn from past experiences. I am happy to work with students with communication challenges, shyness, and social anxiety. 

I will encourage and support dialogue that is open, honest, and beneficial to the discussion.
  
As this is an inclusive workshop, all students are welcome. If your student has special abilities or requires accommodations, please let me know.
