Tuning in to Kids and Tuning in to Teens, developed by the University of Melbourne, offers an approach to parenting and caring which supports children and young people’s emotional development and intelligence. It also provides strategies for adults to help kids through difficult moments in ways that bring children, young people and their parents, carers and educators closer and promotes learning. This course will draw on material from both Kids and Teens, tailored to the ages, stages and needs of the children and young people that the group participants parent, care for and work with.

The course is suitable for;

parents, carers, mentors and teachers of children and young people
who are experiencing the usual ups and downs of growing up,
parents and carers who are supporting children and young people who have a disability, or are recovering from trauma and difficult experiences.

Participants learn EMOTION COACHING principles and skills to help kids and young people....
recognise and understand their own and other people’s feelings
talk about and manage their emotions in safe and appropriate ways
grow in confidence in solving problems and managing disagreements

These skills are often called ‘emotional intelligence’, and research shows they are really important for kids.
Children and young people with higher emotional intelligence:
enjoy greater success with making friends and managing conflict with peers
have better concentration, so they are more likely to succeed academically
are more able to self soothe when upset or angry
tend to have fewer childhood illnesses
have more stable and satisfying relationships as adults; and
have greater career success ....
...emotional intelligence may be a better predictor of academic and career success than IQ!
