Classroom
Relationship Building
Traditional class teacher periods focus on daily administrative tasks such as homework collection. "Class relationship building" is the alternative, transforming traditional classroom management, stressing on the relationship building process for a better cohesive bonding in the class. For instance, "dialogue circles" are held where students communicate and share their feelings and needs equally with one another.

story telling
Important yet abstract skills for communication and emotional learning are embedded into a number of fun and interesting short stories, through which students could easily understand these skills and connect them with daily life experiences.
Daily Life scenarios
The use of daily life scenarios allows students to make use of their personal experiences in understanding these scenarios, which effectively raises their engagement in class.

Practices
As complicated theories are simplified into concrete, easily-memorable steps, students are encouraged to practice communication and emotional skills both inside and outside classroom.

parents empowerment
We provide workshops for parents with useful techniques and concepts on how to communicate with their children in an effective way that is helpful to their mental development.
Parents workshop
Our workshops aim to improve the collaboration between parents & schools, support parent-child communication, and introduce strategies for resolving parent-child conflicts, which could easily escalate into severe communication problems if not settled properly. These workshops also assist parents in understanding their own communication habits, as well as facilitating the mutual understanding of emotions and needs between parents and children.

After attending JUST FEEL’s workshop, I found that Compassionate Communication is very useful in dealing conflicts with my daughter. She even took the initiative to chat with me these days!
Parent A
At the beginning, I had 0 knowledge on Compassionate Communication. In addition to learning skills in the workshop, I also reflected more on my past communication practices, and understood the significance of empathy and communication.
