How your child learns is as important as what they learn; how they feel significantly impacts learning. You may have heard the term ‘emotional intelligence’. Emotional intelligence, or emotional quotient (EQ), is a person’s ability to identify, evaluate, control and express emotions. It helps us communicate with others, negotiate situations and develop clear thought patterns. The Helen Doron program takes this into account throughout the school day. The physical learning environment, activities with teachers, classmates and self-directed activities are all carefully orchestrated to help your child reach his full developmental potential.
