Improving Social Skills in Children & Adolescents

Use  of pictures as visual aids was very helpful.

Great course! Wonderful reference material as well!

I actually took this course to assist a family member who has a child who suffers greatly from social skill deficit. I look forward to implementing the strategies on a personal level and am looking forward to sharing the strategies with these people.

Great resources I will be able to share with parents! :)

Able to build lessons from the material.

Everything was clear and concise and just well put together.

Very interesting and great tips for teaching social skills.

Great course. A lot of useful information

The course is excellent and very useful for working with children and adolescents. It is clear and easy to read. Thank you for an amazing course.

I enjoyed this course and learned information that I feel can be used with some of my students.

Excellent course. Well organized and very interesting and informative. Thank you.

Great refresher course about social skills.

Excellent presentation and excellent overview of so many important factors and interventions. I was already familiar with most of it, but this is outstanding reference literature.

I liked the variety of resources from which information was shared and the practical strategies and examples for how to implement specifically teaching social skills.

It is nice to complete a course online. It is helpful information that I will use with my students.

This course is very useful and relevant to the public school setting.

I learned a lot of helpful information. It gave me insight into the "why" of a lot of disruptive behaviors at school.

Very comprehensive and useful for my practice.

It's a lot of information and it is helpful to re-read it several times. This was a relevant effective course for me.

Very informative with great examples

A great amount of information that I am thankful for. I printed out the material  to reread before taking the test. I will now use it as a reference. Thank you

This was a terrific review of information. The information was presented in an organized way and I appreciated the examples, scenarios and references. It was nice to have all this information organized in this way.

A wealth of information on conceptualizing and teaching social skills to children.

The practical suggestions and examples are extremely useful.

Love how this course gave clear, applicable examples and smoothly built on previous knowledge.

The relevancy of this material cannot be understated. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I thought this was a very good course. As a clinical child psychologist who works in a school setting, I knew a lot of this, but it helped me to translate even more of my knowledge into practice. Moreover, the course helped me to realize how necessary executive skills are for social skills.

The course was presented in a clear and concise manner. It was very beneficial.

I have learned about many concepts mentioned previously, however, I like the way the course put together all of the concepts under one umbrella. All teachers-to-be should be required to take a course such as this one.

This course is quite comprehensive and offers a nice framework from which to create goals, objectives, and a general direction for therapy.

This was an excellent course and very relevant to my practice. I especially found the content specific to social skills and learning disabilities helpful.

Excellent course! Well organized, thorough, and absolutely chock full of great examples, resources, and a nice balance between research and practical application. Time was well spent! I can't wait to put some of these techniques into practice. Come on 2021!! It's going to be a GREAT new year!

Great course. Easy navigation. Well organized with great information.

What I really enjoy about these modules is that you get all the satisfaction of learning and being able to print and keep the educational materials including strategies, without the pressure of test-taking "under the gun". It is so much better to learn that way. Being able to have strategies also assists me in working with my students in the future after the module is completed. I love how user-friendly the modules are and the information is also very clearly explained.

Very easy to read & very well explained information! Thank you for offering great courses!

I really enjoyed this course work. The material was current and presented in a reader friendly way. I will definitely use sections from the reading material to share with colleagues.  The material was relevant to the students within my work-setting and will find great use for what I learned in this course work. Thank you!

Had several worksheet acrtivities that will be helpful in my work with the AU population. Especially liked the voice volume worksheet.

Very thorough and very well written.

There is so much information to digest around social skills. It's not an isolated skill. It has been on of the most challenging language areas I have ever tried to teach. Maybe teach is the wrong word. To try to improve social skills to me is breaking it down to microsteps. It is very hard because so much of it is unspoken. This was a great unit. Thanks.

So much helpful diagnostic material in this course!!!

Excellent course! Reinforced much of my knowledge and experience working with children that lack social skills, as well as offered new information to me.

Thank you very much! It was really interesting to get deeper in social communication skills in children and this can be applied to teens and adults as well. Thank you!

This course was so comprehensive and provided many different ways to social interaction. I also learned more about executive functioning and will be taking that course if you still have it. Thank you.

This class was a very good introduction to Social Skills. I gained a lot of useful information that I can use now.

This course was helpful in breaking down the components of social skills and providing verbage to address deficits in a non-threatening way.

I feel this course is essential for each and every practicing Speech Language Pathologist.

Very practical and thorough. I  have gained a lot that will benefit my clientele.

Wish this had been in lecture/video format rather than text, but it was very informative. Thank you!

Great material, very easy to understand and apply to practice.

One of the best courses I have taken here.
