Our Approach
Let us share the feedback of a middle-school teacher about our approach and results:
"The main benefits we noticed were the following: the group behavior and dynamics improved a lot. The boys and girls integrated. There was an increase of self-awareness and an impact of their behavior in the class. Girls and boys were more integrated, they were more open to mixed groups when it got to doing projects together. Students’ emotional intelligence increased after the program. They seemed to care more about each other´s hobbies, interests and feelings. They were more united.
Students were less dramatic and more aware about things. They were more open minded and understood others’ point of view better than before.
The program wasn´t difficult at all. Ildikó always guided us and provided help when we had any questions etc.
For us, as Middle School teachers, it´s important to do this program from 5th to9th grade. We think it will also work with elementary students and even with adults."
