If you want to help today's teenagers, then you need to begin with their brains!

This workshop reveals the secrets of the teenage brain. Today's world is full of teenagers struggling with learning challenges, fragile brain issues, boredom, or stress. How can teachers and parents unlock and engage the adolescent's "digital" brain? The teenage brain is undergoing huge changes: it's a work in progress. Webinar available.

Discover:

• Why their famous weird and wacky behaviour is not all about hormones

• Why the adolescent brain is in biological turmoil

• The reasons behind their oppositional behaviour and hair trigger stress responses

• How dopamine drives their risk-taking behaviour

• What teenagers crave most

• The most critical skill teenagers need to practise to survive and thrive

• Strategies to effectively reach and teach adolescents, leading them to academic success and a life-long learning potential

The latest brain research provides new ways for adults and teens to relate. Learn strategies to deal with the screaming, melt-downs, eye rolling and fist waving behaviours. Teenagers have a great opportunity to influence the development of their own brains. They can build awesome brains or waste their brains.

This workshop can pertain to a wide variety of audiences: school based, community based, PAC presentations, youth summits, clubs just to name a few.

Great brains are made.
