For many children it is easy to strike up a conversation or join one already in progress but for others engaging in small talk or starting a conversation can be challenging. Developing a child’s conversational skills and etiquette is important as it helps them build confidence, cultivate friendships, and understand social expectations. A child who is good at communicating verbally will often produce better written communication and interpret what they read more accurately, helping them in all areas of academics. Our 60-minute conversation skills workshop will cover some of the following topics.
Topics Include: How to start a conversation, Icebreakers to start a conversation, How to keep a conversation going, How to end a conversation, Topics to avoid, Active listening and not interrupting, Being respectful and non-judgmental, Rude and disrespectful body language and behavior, Giving and receiving compliments.
