Quotes from socialsklz:-) certification graduates

“I have just returned from NYC where I spent 3 days at the socialsklz:-) centre,  training to become a certified instructor under the superb tuition of its founder Faye de Muyshondt. It was a transformative experience. Full of practical ideas and solutions, the training not only gave me great pleasure, it  has  also left me with a clearer understanding and practical knowledge  on how to develop children's social and emotional skills and give them the ‘tools to thrive in the modern world.’  Thought provoking and illuminating, the course covered a great deal of ground enriched by insights from both a wealth of ‘hands on’ practical experiences and psychology. No one could ask for more from just one course.”

"I’ve recently returned from a three-day socialsklz instructor certification training in Manhattan. Every aspect of the workshop was impressive--an ideal combination of tutorials and class observation. I left with complete materials to begin teaching, the confidence to do so, and the reassurance that Faye de Muyshondt and her colleagues would be there for ongoing consultation and advice. socialsklz fills such an important need in our children’s educational journey and I am thrilled to be bringing socialsklz to the Greater Boston area.”

"My kids went through Faye de Muyshondt socialsklz:-) classes a couple of years back. Faye taught the classes in such a fun and interactive way that my kids still remember their lessons vividly and demonstrate those skills when they are out in public. As a mom, I have been impressed and therefore I decided to return and become a certified instructor under Faye's charge. I believe that social skills are important to success in the corporate world and there is no better time to start building a strong foundation than when your child is young!"
