Mastering Student Motivation

• To encourage students to take personal responsibility for their futures
• To remove self-limiting beliefs and glass ceilings
• To encourage students to develop self-motivation

This workshop is deeply personal and requires that students take a good look at the reasons why they think and do certain things.

During the workshop, students will:

• Question limiting belief systems and recognise the benefits of a healthier, positive state of mind
• Begin the shift towards more helpful, positive thoughts
• Challenge habitual thinking patterns and start to replace them with more positive behaviours
• Develop self-motivation skills
• Become more focused on achieving self-set goals
• Grow more confident in their ability to succeed

Mastering Student Motivation is a high-impact experience, focused on empowering students to take ownership of their learning and encouraging them to take responsibility for their future.

The interactive session helps students identify their ambitions and the reasons behind their motivation. Students begin by clearly defining their objectives, then work through a simple but effective goal-setting exercise that they can use again and again.

Using the powerful, personal development model: state – behaviour – results, this workshop is especially useful for students who:

• Are unclear about what they want to achieve in life
• Lack the drive to succeed
• Lack the stamina to pursue self-set goals
• See exams as the end of the learning process

This workshop helps to reframe the school/college learning process into a context that has more meaning. Students start to see education as a journey and one which can help them achieve their goals and ambitions. Developing an understanding of the deeper purpose of education and charting progress against goals helps ignite an internal motivation and drive to succeed in students.

Students learn to:

• Challenge habitual behaviours and thought patterns, replacing them with more positive ones
• Become more conscious of their state of mind and how to manage their feelings as a result of this
• Make fundamental attitude and motivational shifts that will help fuel achievement and success

We recommend sitting students around tables in groups of four to six in a spacious room that is conducive to learning.

Mastering Student Motivation can be delivered face-to-face or online.

“Our presenter really got the students involved, even those who were reluctant to take part, and regular breaks enabled the students to refocus. The sessions were informative and engaging, with students being encouraged to take an active role throughout. Engaging, responsive and fun. 5 stars!” Teacher, Uckfield College
