Confident to Carry On: The Growth Mindset Workshop
For parents and teachers of kids age 1-5
This course for you if ...
“I cannot thank you enough. I feel like I am freeing [my daughter] from the prison I have lived in my entire life.” —P.C.
In this concise but informative workshop, I'll share the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset, how mindset affects kids' approach to school, why praise is a trap, and what we can say instead to raise confident kids.
You'll have chances for reflection and feedback (and if you take them, you'll get more out of the course).
In the end, you'll come away with concrete steps to raise a confident child with a growth mindset.
And you don't need to add any extra activities to your day--you only need to change the way you respond in situations that come up naturally.
