Weekly self-esteem sessions for current y6 girls. Here are 5 skills I have gained so far. 1. Empathy: Having empathy is crucial when working with year 6 girls in weekly self-esteem sessions. It allows you to understand and connect with their emotions and experiences, helping them feel heard and supported.2. Active Listening: Being an active listener enables you to fully engage with the girls during the sessions. It involves giving them your full attention, acknowledging their feelings, and responding in a supportive and non-judgmental way.3. Positive Reinforcement: Providing positive reinforcement is essential in building self-esteem. By recognising and praising the girls' efforts and accomplishments, you can help boost their confidence and encourage them to develop a positive self-image.4. Communication Skills: Effective communication skills are key to fostering a safe and open environment for the girls to express themselves. Being able to communicate clearly and respectfully allows you to facilitate meaningful discussions and address any concerns or challenges they may face.5. Creativity: Incorporating creativity into the sessions can make them more engaging and enjoyable for the girls. Using various activities, games, and exercises that encourage self-expression and exploration can help boost their self-esteem and promote positive self-image.
