'Our son started to attend the Emotions Club in March of 2023. One of the biggest benefits was the immediate focus on his issues and problems he had at school. Indifferently, if it was with his classmates or with teachers. A big advantage was that Vivi used to be part of the school my son attends and hence had a bigger chance to find more objective arguments as well as able to see the inner dynamic among pupils and between class and teachers.
The second point I would like to mention is Vivi´s highly sensitive and individual approach towards kids attending the Emotions Club.
The third one is her close cooperation with the children's parents. All goals are to help children to feel comfortable in school, to find their predisposition, and to be able to take advantage of them now and in the future. In case of any problem, Vivi works as a mediator between children and/or parents.
In regards to the personal development of our son, I really appreciate what he learned with Vivi - to see situations as more complex cases that aren´t black and white. He also started to understand that motivations that drive other people to a different behavior are sometimes difficult to understand and/or accept, but it is always good to, at least, try to understand them. At the same time, he gained more self-confidence and the ability to stand his ground. Our son is also more aware of his emotions, and he is learning how to deal with them. It isn´t an easy thing as it is difficult for many adults.
The last thing I would like to underline as a benefit of Emotions Club is that our son is gaining a solid base for psychological hygiene (self-care) and a healthy approach to whatever is happening in his head - emotions that are very important for him now (with puberty on board). Still, it will be even more important in his future.
I would deeply recommend Emotions Club not only as help for existing problems but also as a beneficial emotional - personal development - individual guide for any child.'
