Emotional Intelligence

Dr. Jackie Yarbrough 


Topics: 

School Choice… How do I know my child is in the right school? Is the school’s approach to teaching compatible with my child’s approach to learning?

Home/School Communication… As a parent, what can I do to bridge the communication gap that exists between the classroom and home without burdening the teacher?

Learning Styles and Learning Disabilities… What do we know about the different ways children learn? How can I facilitate my child’s learning? How do I know if my child has a learning disability? What does the presence of a learning disability mean for my child’s future?

Social/Emotional Intelligence… What is emotional intelligence? How can I tell if my child is emotionally intelligent? What is EQ vs. IQ? Can I teach my children emotional intelligence traits? Why is emotional intelligence important?

Navigating Social Situations in High School… My child is being bullied – what can I do? My child won’t stand up for himself – what can I do? My child is overly aggressive – what can I do? My child has no friends – what can I do? How should I react when my child tells me about things that happened at school? How do children perceive situations at school? What is appropriate developmentally as far as socialization?
