自信的溝通：完成初級公開演講和辯論 1 級

"Confidence comes from hours and weeks and years of constant work and dedication."- Robert Staubach 

A warm welcome to you! My name is Aasiyah (Aa-see-yah) and a short form for it is Siya (see-ya). I go by the gender pronoun of she/her.  I am a certified communication and confidence coach and I am beyond excited to share my expertise with you! 

I believe that the best education you can give a child is the education of building confidence, emotional intelligence and communication skills.  I believe that these life skills are important for all ages and even more valuable than subjects taught in school. This is exactly why I do what I do. I believe confidence exists in every child and I act as a catalyst to help them find it and strengthen it. My aim is to enable each child to reach their highest potential. 

Good communication skills and confidence is more than just a skill. It is a mindset and a lifestyle. Having healthy communication strategies helps children better their mental health, hold more positive relationships, be more empathetic and take on challenges in a much easier way. This is why I always provide a holistic approach in my teachings. Each child has their own unique needs and this is why I always provide individualized lesson plans and teachings to my students. 

In addition to being a confidence and communications coach, I also hold a degree in psycholinguistics from The University of Toronto. Secondly, I am a Mental Health and Addictions student. I have over 8 years of experience working with children of all kinds. Also, I am a certified emotional intelligence practitioner, public speaking facilitator, mindfulness practitioner and an acceptance and commitment therapy practitioner. I also hold a TESOL certificate and teach online English to students in China.

Philosophy: 
I am a strong believer in "learning through play". This is why you will notice that my classes are always filled with fun learning games. I also make my classes as interactive as possible, where kids can role-play situations that can be applicable in real life.  Lastly, I take high priority on providing my students with a safe and comfortable place where they can be themselves and grow.  


Some other fun facts about me: 
1. I am a dancer and a performer.
2. My favorite color is pink. 
3. I LOVE DIY projects.
4. My favourite ice cream is unicorn sparkle. 
5. I have an obsession with shoes. 

That's a little bit about me. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. If you have any further questions and/or inquiries, please feel free to reach out to me!
