From Tantrums to Tranquility: How Teaching Emotional Intelligence Can Transform Your Child’s Behaviour?
- 30 April 2023
At Oakridge International School, we believe that every child deserves to have the tools they need to succeed in life. One of the most important tools a child can have is emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand and manage one’s own emotions, as well as the emotions of others. When children have a strong foundation in emotional intelligence, they are better equipped to handle challenges, build positive relationships, and succeed in school and beyond.
Not just this, a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that emotionally intelligent children were more successful academically, had better mental health, and were less likely to engage in behavioural issues. Following the best practices as one of the best international schools in India, we incorporate emotional intelligence into our pedagogy, enhancing children’s skills such as self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills.
Here are 5 tips on how you, as a parent can foster emotional intelligence in your child:
At Oakridge International School, we are passionate about helping children develop the skills they need to succeed in all areas of life. By teaching emotional intelligence, we are transforming the way children learn and interact with the world around them.
