Description

In this course, we are focusing on your role as a parent or an educator on how you can support your teenagers with exam anxiety, their emotional regulation and empowering them with practical strategies to navigate this stressful time.Naturally, exam time brings with it a rise in stress levels and the challenge to perform as best we can. However, when exam time becomes a source of dread that can negatively impact our well being and our academic performance we need to rethink the current strategies we are using. As parents and educators, we want to support our teenagers navigate this stressful time. Our teenagers tend to put a significant amount of pressure on themselves and focus more on the outcome rather than the process during exam time. Equipping them with practical strategies, helping them to keep realistic expectations and shifting their focus back to the process is key to maintaining their well being and increasing performance.Learning ObjectivesWhose anxiety is it anyway?
