Importance of Governess for Social Development of your Child

Importance of Governess for Social Development of your Child

It is well understood that a governess plays a critical role in supporting a child’s educational development at the school-age level while taking into consideration his or her individual needs.

However, did you know that a governess also plays an essential role in a child’s social development? That is true, a governess is trained and qualified to provide both educational support and stimulating social experiences for your child to develop appropriate social skills.

Setting up an appropriate environment for social interactions and experiences

Most governesses have vast experience as private tutors or private teachers, as well as child care professionals, which places them in a pivotal position to see your child through his or her intellectual and social development needs. 

A governess prepares a supportive and nurturing environment for a child to attain mastery of ability and skills via play and structured learning experiences. In the course of play experiences, a child can grasp and internalize various social skills which are pivotal for their overall social development.

One of the Royal Teaching governess Dubai, who recently started working with a young local family, asserts that she schedules for and sets aside quality time with the child to engage in both structured and unstructured play to promote healthy physical and social development as well a curiosity to explore the world around her.

Teaching Etiquette

A governess endeavors to hone the child’s social skills in the areas of etiquette and social behavior. Good manners play a significant role in creating and maintaining social relations. A governess not only teaches a child about good conduct but also more practical approaches to how to behave in different social situations. Through the governess’s scaffolding, the child learns how to greet and introduce herself to people and hold conversations with them courteously.

A governess will also work closely with your child’s school teacher in Dubai to ensure that the child demonstrates good performance and social behavior in school.

Supporting Talents and Abilities

A governess will support and encourage your child’s unique talents and abilities such as art, music, and sports.

Unlike a private tutor who often works on an hourly basis, a governess would be more likely to live with the family and even travel with them when necessary. This allows the governess to bond with the child and learns more about their interests and abilities. She is more than just a typical private teacher and can be a mentor and a friend to your child.

Taking into consideration the collaborative work between our governesses in Dubai and your child’s teachers, your child will be better prepared to handle social interactions with peers and adults.
