  Kids' Testimonials

" The course is about understanding and believing in yourself. It tells me how I can choose what to say and do and also about understanding myself when I am sad or angry. I know how to control my actions and feelings from this course."
                                            Leah, aged 9
 
" I think the course is useful because I learn what to do in all different situations. I've learnt to communicate propaly with myself and others. Even the games help me understand more about life."
                                          Alice, aged 11
"(It's about) believing in yourself and understanding what problems others may have. Learning to share our problems with someone."

Parents' Feedback on Kids

"My daughter was 8 years old in third grade and 'crushed' by the pressures she was experiencing at school. At home she was confident and bright and very much her own person, yet every afternoon after school she was tense and very  miserable.There seemed to be situations she couldn't handle, things seemed to be getting worse, she was weepy, confused and very negative. 

She had noticeably gained in confidence within a few weeks of starting Kris's course. By the end of year outwardly she was a changed person. Her teacher had also observed her ability to rise above problems, her temperament was more controlled, her feelings less frail. Her school report attested to the fact that she had gained confidence. I'm just glad she had at 8 years of age  the opportunity to redirect situations, to control them rather than wait until years later or maybe never, when the bad habits were more firmly established and part of her personality."

(About her 13 year old) "He thinks he hasn't changed but we think he has. He's quite different and hasn't looked back. He's defending other children and he's standing up for himself.

It's a quietening thing. They seem stronger inside themselves. There's more evenness about their lives. They can cope with things and they're not getting so upset about things. 

                          Mother of boys aged 11 and 13 years

"My daughter's involvement in Kris's classes brought an increased and pleasing effort in communication at home and at school. She expresses herself more assertively and understands her thoughts and feelings are of real interest and value to us. 

She shows confidence when speaking her mind and stands up to her younger brother who is domineering and likes to overshadow her. He is about to start in one of Kris's classes, incidentally - the overconfident have as much to learn from Kris as those who lack confidence altogether.
Well done, thanks, Kris.
