Adolescent Psychology

Understanding adolescents is crucial for parents to effectively support and guide their children through this developmental stage. Adolescent Psychology offered by LCTT are some important points to cover:

  • Empathy and Active Listening: Adolescents often feel misunderstood. Parents can build trust and rapport by actively listening to their concerns without judgment. This fosters open communication and helps parents understand their child's perspective.
  • Respect their Independence: Adolescents are striving for independence and autonomy. Parents should acknowledge their child's growing need for independence while still providing guidance and boundaries. Allowing them to make some decisions helps develop their sense of responsibility.
  • Encourage Open Communication: Create a safe and non-judgmental environment where adolescents feel comfortable expressing themselves. Encourage them to share their thoughts, feelings, and concerns openly, and be available to listen without interrupting or lecturing.
  • Validate their Feelings: Adolescents experience a wide range of emotions as they navigate the challenges of adolescence. Parents should validate their child's feelings, even if they don't understand them, and help them develop healthy coping mechanisms for dealing with emotions.
  • Encourage Independence and Responsibility: Give adolescents opportunities to take on responsibilities and make decisions appropriate to their age and maturity level. This helps build confidence and self-esteem as they learn to navigate the world on their own.
  • Stay Informed and Involved: Stay informed about your child's interests, activities, and social circles. Get involved in their lives by attending school events, volunteering, and participating in activities together. This shows your child that you care about their interests and well-being.

By understanding adolescent psychology and implementing these strategies, parents can build a strong and supportive relationship with their children during this critical stage of development.

When I was looking forward to upgrade my skills, I come across LCTT. Manisha has promptly responded and suggested the best course for me. PG Diploma in SEN Teacher's Training. Tutor Support from Sudipta Ma'am and Senior Mentor Arpita Ma'am, were very encouraging and clarified any doubts and given very constructive feedback. I have already recommended my juniors and friends to take up relevant courses offered by LCTT. I am very happy with the learning experience from LCTT.

I was looking online at different recruiters and saw Korvia suggested LCTT for the certificate. After checking them out, I found that the prices were reasonable and that they even had a summer sale going that I was able to take advantage of. The course was quick and efficient so that it was easy to focus on exactly what they wanted me to get from each module.

I took this TEFL course with the intent to someday teach in South Korea but J also found it to be helpful for my own language learning as well as my future plans to be an university professor. I did find the grammar terminology to be specific to this course though, which was a little odd.

The information provided was thorough and easy to read and understand. The quizzes were useful to see if you had gained the required knowledge for each module. I definitely feel better prepared although perhaps a few more examples could be useful, e.g. a completed lesson plan.
