"Its so inspiring to work with such a dedicated team of individuals - all of whom have so much passion about working with Kids and taking SoulKids to as many children as possible !"
Thankyou to all our newly graduated SoulKids Mentors ! With love and gratitude Sally and Vikas .
Another SoulKids Mentor - Richa was interviewed and her comments are below.
1 - What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?
What differentiates two persons is not their academic or financial background but their attitude towards life. And no one teaches children how to live life or approach life. I was looking for life skills which would empower children to live life to the fullest and I found it in Soulkids. As a Soulkids Mentor I am able to teach children the essential life skills which allow them to lead a happy and successful life.
2 - How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?
Every child is a unique individual and has his or her own thinking. Instead of overcoming it with my own thoughts I am 'listening' more to them. My role is to provide them with diverse experiences and not conclusions. It is no more just an adult-child interaction but a conversation between equals, only difference being that one has experience and the other crazy ideas...
3 - What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?
Difference between a happy child and a 'forever' happy child is his unyielding self-belief. As a Soulkids Mentor I help him realise that self-belief. If I can make a child believe in himself then I think I have achieved what I set out to do.
