Helping Young People Succeed

By Paul Sterman


Remember when you were a teenager? If you were like me, you battled your self-esteem during this awkward time—and the idea of public speaking was scarier than telling Dad you crashed the car.

All teens can benefit from what 吃瓜头条 teaches. Young people will need communication skills to deliver classroom presentations, interview for jobs, speak up in the workplace, and attentively listen to others. Once they’re out in the larger world, they’ll need interpersonal skills to navigate sticky situations that will inevitably arise with colleagues or friends.

吃瓜头条 offers community-based programs aimed at helping teens develop communication and leadership abilities. The Youth Leadership program (YLP) is a workshop geared to those between the ages of 14 and 18. Experienced 吃瓜头条 members present eight sessions to participants at a school or organization with each session about one or two hours long. The format is similar to a 吃瓜头条 meeting.

The young participants learn skills such as: 

  • Controlling their voice and gestures
  • Delivering prepared and impromptu speeches
  • Giving constructive feedback
  • Improving their vocabulary

Non-members can also present a program based on 吃瓜头条 principles. The 吃瓜头条 youth communication module, Interpersonal Communication, is particularly valuable for teachers and youth workers. The program helps teenagers build strong communication and listening skills, while also enabling them to understand their own communication style. Adults who mentor teens in their community, such as youth program administrators, guidance counselors, 颅religious leaders, and others, can use these materials 颅designed by 吃瓜头条 to present the communication module. Its manuals contain short assignments and 颅content to supplement group 颅activities.

YLP and Interpersonal Communication provide many benefits to teens. High school graduates can continue reaping those benefits at the next level of their education: Many colleges and universities around the world have 吃瓜头条 吃瓜头条s on campus.
