Finding your potential
Finding your own potential and realising your strengths and abilities is key to finding the right path, fulfilment and happiness in life.
It is therefore vital to expose children to different areas of interest so that they have the chance to discover their passions and interests and explore them further. Although some interests will change over time it is this exposure to learning processes that enhances their abilities and fosters inter-linked thinking, strengthening abilities and discovering new ones.
In particular, children with high potential can find it hard to realise their abilities, whether due to lack of exposure to new fields of interest or not being challenged at the right level. This can be very frustrating and demotivating for children and effect their behaviour, self-esteem and outlook in life.
The key is to find solutions both within the educational system and outside the school that foster abilities and unlock barriers to your child's potential.
With over 25 year of experience in the education sector and 16 years of hands on experience in gifted education let me help you to foster ability and talent, to open doors and find solutions together so that your child's path can be one of motivation and discovery.
