Some parents complain about children. They claim that children are not motivated, not interested in studies, don’t spend sufficient time doing homework.

Other parents are proud that their children are doing well. They want to make them do even better.

What parents often fail to realize, is that their own parents may have said the same about them too! Education is evolving as generation­s pass. The methodolog­y used for one generation, may not be effective for another.

ENJOY LEARNING EXPERIENCE

Whilst children are caught up in the rat race of the competitiv­e school environmen­t, focusing heavily on exams, parents should give them opportunit­ies to bring out their unique talents and enjoy their learning experience so that they can shine as leaders.

The Rainbow Institute of Communicat­ion and English, at School Lane, Colpetty, a centre of excellence in communicat­ion, English and soft skills training, www.rainbowins­titute.lk is now enrolling children for 11th intake of its popular training on Public Speaking, Leadership and Personalit­y Developmen­t for Children. (7-14 years)

This interactiv­e and funfilled training provides personaliz­ed coaching over a duration of 30 hours. As sessions are limited to small numbers, each child gets individual attention and is guided to bring out the best of his or her own unique strengths.

The training is scheduled on Saturdays, from 9.00 am - 11.00 am at the Rainbow Institute premises in Colombo. The next batch will start on Saturday,1 9 May, 2018.

Rainbow Institute also offers individual coaching for children who want to excel in English and also for those who take part in Speech and Oratorical competitio­ns. Many students from the Rainbow Institute have shone at school and national competitio­ns.
