Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Helping your child grow into a confident, well-rounded individual

Personal, Social and Emotional Growth

When everyone around you is focusing on school work and homework, it is easy to forget that your child must also grow socially and emotionally to become an independent person. Here at Big Fish Tutors, we understand the paramount necessity of personal growth alongside education to unlock the full potential of your child's character and personality.

Personal Growth

How does your child understand their capabilities?
How does your child look after themselves?
How does your child understand their own strengths and weaknesses?

Social Growth

How does your child understand themselves in relation to others?
How does your child make friends?
How does your child understand their responsibility towards society?

Emotional Growth

How does your child understand their own feelings?
How does your child express emotions?
How does your child show empathy towards another person's view?

“Now I can speak in front of my whole class in school without feeling scared.”
— Katrina, Year 3

As your child grows, our tutors will coach them to understand different points of view; be able to relate to adults and other children; explore and learn creatively; practise social responsibility; feel confident about themselves; express their point of view in a respectful way. These life skills will help your child grow into a secure and valuable individual.
