Personalised social and life skills sessions via Zoom — available worldwide.
Each session is approximately one hour long and follows a clear, predictable structure. Every session focuses on one specific skill or social environment — chosen based on the individual's needs and goals.
A structured presentation covering one specific communication, life skill, or social environment — covering the theory, the social environment, and the reasoning behind it — clear, literal, and evidence-based. Topics include tone of voice, eye contact, facial expressions, conversational turn-taking, job interviews, asking for help, and more.
Live, unscripted improvisation using real-life scenarios relevant to the individual. Verbal feedback is given after each scenario. While each session has a primary skill focus, Michelle will also observe and provide feedback across other areas of communication. Scenarios may vary to reflect different social contexts, with Michelle taking on different character roles to make the practice as realistic as possible.
A full feedback report on performance and progress is sent to the client and/or parent within 48 hours of every session.
No two individuals are the same. Before sessions begin, SLEducation uses a multi-faceted intake process to ensure every session is as relevant and effective as possible.
A 20-minute Zoom call where you can ask questions, discuss the service, and find out if SLEducation is the right fit. No obligation to book.
Following booking, intake forms are sent to ensure Session 1 is as focused and productive as possible. All clients complete a Self-Assessment — a simple, accessible questionnaire written in clear and literal language, covering their own experiences and what they would like to work on. A Parent/Carer Observation Form is also available and is required for clients under 18.
The first session is a structured but relaxed conversation. Michelle will take the time to get to know the individual — their strengths, personal goals, and areas they would like to improve in their social and everyday life — observe their communication style, and collaboratively agree on a session plan moving forward. This ensures every subsequent session is targeted, relevant, and built around that specific individual.
All subsequent sessions follow the structured format — explicit teaching, improvisation practice, and a feedback report within 48 hours.
SLEducation's foundational session presentations are often adapted to reflect the individual's specific language proficiency, situations and goals. Additionally, fully bespoke materials are available as a separate service, including:
Descriptive guides that help individuals understand specific social situations, environments, and the perspectives of others — without prescribing what to say or do. Designed to build contextual understanding, not scripts.
Workbooks built around the individual's specific real-life goals and challenges. Examples include preparing for a job interview, navigating a new workplace, managing a holiday or travel situation, or understanding and managing social fears.
A paid 45-minute Zoom session available at the end of a package. Michelle reviews the feedback reports from the completed sessions, explains the skills worked on, and provides parents with practical strategies to reinforce and support their child's progress at home.
Available to book separately on completion of a 6 or 12 session package.
Sessions cover a wide range of communication and life skills, tailored to each individual's specific needs and goals.
Understanding what eye contact communicates, managing sensory comfort, and finding practical alternatives that achieve the same social result.
Identifying and using pitch, volume, and speed to ensure spoken words match their intended meaning — in different environments and with different people.
Reading and interpreting facial expressions using a structured three-zone approach — understanding what faces communicate and why context matters.
Recognising when to speak, how long to speak for, and how to hand a conversation back — including practical strategies for managing special interests in conversation.
Practising professional social scenarios including job interviews, workplace communication, and navigating professional environments with confidence.
Practical real-world skills including asking for directions, asking for help, navigating peer pressure, and handling everyday social situations with confidence.
