Education Counselling for middle school students
Middle school students, from grades V - VIII, are all grown up and ready to learn, experience and be influenced by what they see around them. This is the time when they learn to become independent, do their own homework and choose their own friends! Parents observe as their child begins to develop a personality.
At GoalQuest, we believe this is the critical time of a child's life where intervention in the form of counselling and motivational talk can go a long way in shaping their "attitude" and "habbits", which will set them up for success later in life. It is during these years when parents begin to force their child to limit their dreams to more ‘realistic’ and ‘attainable’ milestones. We, on the other hand, want to give children wings to fly and show them how its done from the get go!
Their innate personality begins to develop early in childhood, but the plethora of options and the magnitude of pressure from various walks of life can confuse you. Counselling is an essential act to help the child gain confidence and trust their decisions from day one. This helps them take responsibility and own up to their life. Also, it helps the child understand and appreciate the "why" of life - Why do they have to go to school? Why are they learning Geography, and History? Why do they take a Physical Education class?
What we offer
- 1 Correctly assess the child to figure out what interests them and why. This is to ensure that the child has maximum intellectual curiosity. This also means that you can’t fit them into a mould, dear parent. If your child is interested in the Harappan civilisation, rather than Pythagoras Theorm, he’s still as smart.
- 2 Immunize and counsel the child to make them understand what life has in store for them
- 3 Counselling for parents - Yes! Even though this is entire program is meant to help the child, the parents too can have a hard time adapting to their child’s reality. We need to make sure that you give them a loving and nurturing time at school, supporting the child in whatever he decides to do.
