Boost Communication Efficiency with Social Thinking®

Michelle Garcia Winner, founder of Social Thinking, will be coming to Bangkok to conduct two workshops: Sunday, 10 September, and Tuesday, 12 September. The venue is NIST International School in Sukhumvit Soi 15.

Social Thinking® is an approach to supporting students to understand and communicate more effectively with others. The practical frameworks and strategies help people to learn to interpret and respond to abstract social information and produce social skills for use in the classroom, home and community.

This workshop will be useful for teachers/allied educators from mainstream and special needs schools, speech-language therapists, occupational therapists, autism specialists, psychologists, counselors, psychiatrists, pediatricians, physicians, social workers, teacher assistants and parents/caregivers of students with social thinking challenges.
