Teach life skills abroad through travel
You can teach life skills abroad through travel
Life skills are difficult to teach as they’re gained through experience rather than study. World Challenge expeditions provide a structured adventure packed with learning opportunities to help challenge and stretch your students to help you teach life skills abroad.An expedition is an ideal opportunity to teach life skills abroad. Through an expedition young people on the verge of further education will gain confidence, learn to take responsibility and become assertive decision makers. They will develop independence by being away from home, whilst leaning to function as an important team member by accepting responsibility of different job roles during the trip. They will be learning life skills without even realising it!

The experiences gained through educational travel are immense. The amazing memories last a lifetime and the skills and personal development journey that take place during a trip can be life altering. Being away from distractions helps young people to find direction in their life. It can provide new perspectives and demonstrate to students what their strengths and weaknesses are. By selecting a trip where the focus is on learning and development through adventure you can teach your students life skills abroad that set them ahead of their peers. |
Teach practical life skills abroad
School expeditions are not only useful to teach life skills abroad - they can also teach practical skills abroad that can be directly applied to both further education and employment. From budgeting to project management, navigation to survival, employers realise that students who take the initiative to travel abroad are self assured and can hit the ground running.It’s almost impossible to put a price on the value of teaching life skills abroad as the rewards are so rich. The right trip can lead to improved career and education prospects as well encouraging maturity. But all of this does have a price – the cost of a World Challenge expedition. And the best part is that everything is included; from food and accommodation, to flights, instructors and activities. There are no hidden costs to worry about and World Challenge carry out all of the administration from taking payments direct from your students, to visas and red tape – we take all of the hard work out of your hands.
