Improve Social Skills in Teens and Young Adults
Learn about the IRL Social Skills mentoring program in this bonus podcast interview between Peggy Ployhar, host of Empowering Homeschool Conversation/SPED Homeschool Founder & CEO, and Mara McLoughlin, IRL Founder as they talk about the highlight of this live asynchronous program for teens and young adults.
The education and coaching the IRL Social Skills program provides transforms lives through improved relationships, better communication in a variety of environments, and self-knowledge, advocacy, and empowerment. The courses are fun, interactive, supportive and highly effective.
COMMUNICATE BETTER
We teach and coach effective strategies and techniques to enter and exit conversations gracefully—without being “fake” or masking.
Use humor more appropriately and effectively in a variety of different social situations.
Have two-way conversations that demonstrate interest in the other person and help to build camaraderie and understanding.
NURTURE RELATIONSHIPS
Identify appropriate friends based on shared interests, then learn how to maintain those friendships over time.
Develop romantic relationships and use appropriate dating etiquette.
BE SAFE, SEEN AND STRONG
We provide scripts and coaching for how to handle direct and indirect bullying.
Learn how to be your own best advocate.
Become skilled in emotional self-regulation and awareness.
We all need friends, peer support, and connection in order to succeed in life. IRL Social Skills can help you or your socially struggling loved one go from awkward to awesome and from striving to thriving.
