The benefits of our teen programs

TASGM Arts & Science curriculum can provide teens with opportunities to succeed and develop a sense of accomplishment, which can help to boost their self-esteem and confidence.

By expressing themselves creatively, teens can feel valued and appreciated, which can have a positive impact on their overall well-being. Engaging in arts and sciences can help teens develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills. Through experimenting and exploring, teens can develop their cognitive abilities, which can help them in their academic and professional life.

Participating in the arts can help teens to express themselves, develop their emotional intelligence and creativity, and gain confidence in their abilities. In the sciences, experimentation and discovery can also bring a sense of wonder and excitement that can contribute to emotional development.

Working collaboratively on art or science projects can help teens develop teamwork, communication, and leadership skills, which can be valuable in various aspects of life.

Exposure to both arts and sciences can enhance academic performance by providing teens with new and creative ways to approach problem-solving and learning. Studies have shown that students who are involved in the arts often perform better in academic subjects.

"Discover Yourself" aligns with teens in their developmental stage and the program's goals. During adolescence, teens are naturally exploring their identities, values, and strengths as they transition from childhood to adulthood. TASGM's focus on creative expression, mindfulness, and personal growth provides a safe space for teens to reflect on their emotions, interests, and aspirations, helping them understand who they are.

Through activities like therapeutic art, journaling, and meditation, teens can explore their inner thoughts and feelings, build self-awareness, and develop confidence in their individuality. The program encourages a growth mindset, teaching them that self-discovery is an ongoing process of learning, adapting, and embracing both challenges and successes. "Discover Yourself" encapsulates this journey of self-exploration and personal development, making it an ideal term for this stage of life and the experiences TASGM offers.
