Life skills for young adults aimed at 16 to 18 year olds.

Much of a secondary school's education prepares teenagers for their immediate futures, focussing on academic achievements and some career advice.
Very little time is spent on basic life skills that are vital in adulthood.
This course aims to bridge that gap providing valuable lessons in the following areas; getting a job, finances, behaving responsibly, independence, safety in a variety of situations, money traps, politics, and voting and current affairs.
In addition, classes can be tailored to the needs of students and/or parents' wishes.

About Me

I love teaching and training people of all ages and abilities.
I'm friendly, down to earth and I don't use big words to show how clever I am.
I have had many jobs in my life and a lot of different experiences like most middle aged people.
Having 5 children who are now grown up I have often thought, why don't schools teach kids more about becoming adults and what to expect. For this reason I have developed a course that I hope will be fun, useful and a valuable resource for young adults to help them make a good start in life.

Education

I attended the highly respected Queen Elizabeth Grammar School Wakefield West Yorkahire,during my early school life in the 1980s, where I gained 5 O'levels and 1 A' level.

Experience / Qualifications

I attended Huddersfield University as a mature student commencing in 2007 at the prestigious School of Education and graduated in 2011 gaining a B.A. (Hons) degree in Religion and Education 2:1.

Arianit
German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.

✅EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, EMPATHY, NON-VIOLENT COMMUNICATION (NVC), NEGOTIATION FOR RELATIONSHIPS & CONFLICT MANAGEMENT
➤ From NVC (Non Violent Communication) to pragmatic tools, empathy and emotional intelligence. From personal to professional. From theory to practice with simulations. It's about putting in place rational tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular simple techniques which make it possible to improve its intimate, personal, professional relations to even solve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, effective and durable way. ➤ Indeed, the objective is to improve personal / professional communication & overcome any resulting conflicts. So how do you get a clear message across and make a difference? ➤ More precisely, the objectives are to: 0. Understand and identify the issues/risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction. 1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance. 2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles. 3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being hurt. 4. Face then defuse difficult behaviors (attempts at blackmail, threat, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy. 5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills, alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual. ➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, defusing conflicts, negotiating and speaking relevant and successful must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating an adequacy between the message received and the message sent. Consistency between form and substance. ➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and mark the spirits, enhance its content, address its audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message?
