Life skills for Students [Personality development]
Life skills are essentially those abilities that help promote mental well-being and competence in young people as they face the realities of life.
Research shows that Life skills are best learnt in group settings.
We develop and conduct customised Group Guidance Sessions (interactive sessions and workshops) for students of various age groups. Our sessions cater to the developmental needs of the children, are age appropriate and culture positive.
