We would probably find it easy to find children who don\u2019t want to go to school or do their homework and that is because at school they are often faced with boring lessons, outdated curricula that do not meet modern challenges, and blind forging information. Different curricula and the teachers who prepare them, no matter how hard they try to emphasize students’ individualities, are usually obliged to teach children subjects in the same disciplines, but only to allow them to do so in different ways. The abilities of many students do not fit within the pre-defined learning limits, so they are revealed in\u00a0<\/span>non-formal education programmes for youth<\/span><\/u><\/a>, which allow students to reveal and nurture their abilities and to reveal themselves as personalities.<\/span><\/p>\n

As we have already mentioned, non-formal education activities for children who do not like to study can become real salvation, because it is here that their real passion is revealed, as well as the students themselves. Often who face difficulties during lessons and become introverted, students in non-formal education begin to communicate more with their peers, speak more boldly and express themselves more clearly. They are also not afraid to make mistakes, because, unlike in the lessons, the grades do not decrease here due to mistakes, and learning new things is a very fun process. Non-formal education, including extracurricular activities and camps, are available at the\u00a0<\/span>Vilnius lyceum<\/span><\/u><\/a>\u00a0school. It is proven that these activities help maintain motivation and lift their spirits. Psychological benefits are felt as well, and if sports are attended, the benefits become both physical and psychological. It is safe to say that non-formal education helps students to become more open, not afraid to communicate, to know both the limits of their possibilities and the whole world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes a hobby can become even the passion of a kid’s life. Non-formal education fascinates not only children but also older people and helps them reach and exceed their limits. After-school professionals help children understand what areas they are doing best, what skills they have already acquired, and which may need to be improved. After some time, it can be expected that the above-mentioned incentives and the child’s passion for creating, making music, sports, etc. will burn. can become a way of life and later a major source of livelihood, income.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
