Masterclass for teenagers: What do I want to be? The world of professions: how to choose mine?

What do you want to be when you grow up? There is probably not a single person in the world who has not tried to answer this difficult question in childhood. The decision about a profession should be made based on information about aspirations, knowledge, skills and other equally important factors.
Choosing a profession is a question that is probably more relevant for senior students, but children can consider their abilities, preferences and talents long before graduation. And one of the most important questions here is: How do I understand what I want to be?
We invite teenagers to the career guidance workshop “What do I want to be? The world of professions: how to choose mine?”
30 October 2024 at 16:00, Zoom platform
Host – Maryna Kovtun, a practical psychologist, consultant in transactional analysis, symbolic drama and schema therapy, member of the Ukrainian Association of Transactional Analysis.
At the workshop, participants will learn:
– what is career guidance for school students;
– what factors influence the choice of profession;
– how personal traits are related to the choice of profession;
– how to help yourself understand your abilities and desires?
It will be useful!

Webinar: Hyperactive, impulsive, inattentive child – what to do about it?

Your child behaves impulsively, fights at school, and doesn’t seem to calm down for a moment when at home. This type of behaviour “turns you on” because there is no rest for you, as you just yell, give up, make new rules and break old ones. Then you mentally scold yourself for not calming down and not calming the child down.
Why doesn’t the child do as he or she is told? What is going on? Maybe the child has ADHD?
👉🏻 We invite all adults who want to understand what is happening with a child and want to establish communication and help the child socialise.
