School, Sports, Standardized Tests: When Is There Time To Build Life Skills?

from Viewpoints Radio · host Ebony McMorris | AURN, Evan Rook, Marty Peterson, Gary Price

As an academic advisor, Ana Homayoun has had thousands of conversations with students, parents, and administrators. Many of these talks typically center around grades, college admissions, career paths and other key academic to-dos. Yet, what’s not as commonly talked about is the importance of life skills. This means cultivating independence, setting good habits and more. We speak with Homayoun about why so many teens seem to struggle post-high school and how adults can better prepare their kids in the long-term rather than focusing solely on short-term academic markers.Learn More: https://viewpointsradio.org/school-sports-standardized-tests-when-is-there-time-to-build-life-skills Linktr.ee | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | SpotifyFacebook: @ViewpointsOnlineX: @viewpointsradioInstagram: @viewpointsradioFull ArchiveContact UsAffiliates & National Syndication Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
