This course will develop competencies such as communication, conflict resolution, leadership, and the critical thinking skills necessary to be successful students not only in their classes but also in the private school admission process. Engaging activities such as strategy games, team building projects and analytical exercises will challenge learners to push themselves beyond expectations of the classroom. Upon successful completion of UYSS, students will have developed confidence and self-reliance to showcase their soft skills and unique qualities.

*This course should be taken along with KEY SSAT preparation courses

In this course students will learn and understand soft skills such as communication, collaboration and problem solving. Specific focus will be given to creating a classroom atmosphere that is conducive to taking risks within learning and in developing resilience and an awareness of how one’s own behaviours influence learning. Using a variety of engaging activities such as group work, team building, and structured games that encourage respectful communication and peer-peer cooperation, students will become more capable and confident in their creative thinking and interpersonal skills.
