We want to share with you that in our section “Development of our teenagers” you will be able to find endless topics related to friendship, boundaries, routines and habits, independence, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, emotional resources, tips for parents, among others.

Greetings from the Celtic International School, we are glad to receive our students enthusiastically, with the purpose of keep on working in favor of their learning and training as principled people and citizens. My name is Eduardo Gallegos Juárez, Psychologist from Valle de Atemajac University, I’m about to finish a Masters in Clinic Psychology at the UAQ, with a research based on kids and teenagers.

In this section, you’ll find different ways to bond effectively with your children, since they are going through a stage full of changes on a personal, social, psychological, and emotional level, which may bring confusion and uncertainty at times.
Parental support at this stage can generate positive effects on your children’s behaviors, avoiding and preventing many risk situations that may happen at that range of age, especially in the area of coexistence with other young people and in the way of establishing healthier interpersonal relationships.

It is important to establish clear and effective communication channels among all to be able to generate a full development in the adolescents enrolled in the institution and to achieve the goal that, in the future, they are principled human beings capable of relating to their environment in a healthy and effective way. We hope for and appreciate your company and attention to learn and grow together.
