청소년을 위한 핵심 커뮤니케이션 기술

Core Communication Skills for Teens addresses the fact that for many of the most important skills we need in life, we don’t always get sufficient practice before we’re expected to demonstrate them.  Often, these skills are learned by watching others, but studies and experience have shown that this is not the best way for our children to learn.  In Core Communication Skills for Teens, your child will learn valuable communication techniques and practice using them in everyday life.  Your teen will learn and practice what to say; when to say it, and how to say it.  Students will become better able to listen with understanding, speak responsibly, and handle disagreements skillfully.  

By the end of this series, students will have the tools they need to ensure what they need to say is being expressed properly.  They will also have the knowledge that allows them to critically listen and understand what is being conveyed to them in verbal and nonverbal communications.  

Week 1: Understanding Nonverbal Communication

During the class, we will use a variety of techniques (discussion, pair-sharing, games, and slides) to practice the different aspects of communication.  This course is a partnership between me and your child.  We will practice as much as we need to help them feel comfortable.  This course is based on established and proven methods.
