Social Skills Bundle

Bundle Overview

Many children struggle socially not because they don’t want to connect—but because they lack the skills to navigate conversations, understand social cues, and communicate appropriately.

The Social Skills Bundle combines Making Friends, Social Filter, and Reading the Room to give you a complete, practical approach to helping your child build and maintain meaningful relationships. Instead of awkward interactions, missed cues, or saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, your child will begin to connect with others more confidently and effectively.

This bundle breaks down complex social skills into simple, practical strategies you can use in everyday situations—at home, in school, and in the community—so your child can build stronger relationships, improve communication, and feel more confident socially.

What Your Child Will Learn

By the end of this bundle, you will be able to help your child:

1. Start and Build Friendships
Teach your child how to initiate interactions, engage in conversations, and develop meaningful peer connections.

2. Understand Social Cues and Context
Help your child recognize body language, tone, and situational cues so they can better understand what’s happening around them.

3. Think Before Speaking and Communicate More Appropriately
Support your child in filtering their thoughts and adjusting their words based on the situation.

4. Navigate Social Interactions With Greater Confidence
Guide your child in responding more effectively in real-life situations, leading to smoother and more positive social experiences.

My student, while a relatively new client of Frankenberger Associates, is already finding work with his coach to be helpful and effective.

Understanding Diverse Learning Profiles is a wonderful study of student learning profiles, misconceptions, types of assessments to determine how students learn, reading psychoeducational testing reports, and classroom supports. It is a course that brings together the needs and perspectives of the admission team, classroom educators, and learning support professionals to create a stronger student success model. As a veteran admission professional, it provided me with insight to better understand the needs of our applicants and students. I am much more confident in my ability to read and understand testing reports and how a learning profile may present in the classroom....

This course was exactly what I needed to feel more confident in my role as Director of Academic Support. The modules were comprehensive and practical with supporting materials to reinforce the topics. The fact that I can continue to access the videos and readings upon completing the course has been a fantastic resource for me. All educators would benefit from this course.

I am thrilled to share my experience after receiving my certificate from Frankenberger Associates in Understanding Diverse Learning Profiles. This course has truly transformed my approach to working with prospective and current families, as well as lower and middle school faculty, learning support staff, and administration. The valuable tools and insights I gained have deepened my understanding of diverse learning profiles, allowing me to speak confidently and knowledgeably about my candidates. This has fostered trust and collaboration within our community, making a significant impact on our partnerships. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to admission professionals and anyone involved in supporting students....

I loved this course and wish everyone at Middlebridge could take it. For folks entering into the profession or looking to have an update on learning challenges the videos and supplementary readings were on point. I loved the processing speed and working memory videos as so often people do not realize how this impacts the learner. The EF video was excellent and tangible as was the strategies for teachers. It is very rare when you have PD with actual strategies offered. I loved the evaluation section, and the questions to be posed by admissions professionals and teachers in the classroom...

I have had the pleasure of learning from Caryl Frankenberger for almost fifteen years, witnessing firsthand her expertise and unwavering commitment to neurodiverse learners. Caryl has the ability to make complex concepts about learning and cognitive development accessible—a skill I first observed in 2010 during one of her presentations, where she captivated a packed auditorium of educators with ease. Her work has left a lasting impact on me and countless others, empowering students, families, and professionals with the tools and understanding they need to thrive in their strengths.

This 6-module online certificate course is the best training I have ever participated in. As an IEC who provides high school and college consulting for students who have specific learning, cognitive and/or developmental challenges, the course deepened my understanding of learning challenges, and my ability to read and interpret evaluations. I developed new questioning techniques to discern my students' learning strengths, average abilities, and challenges. I watched videos and read the supplemental articles on my own timeline, there was no pressure. Quite simply, this course was a game changer for me and I think it will be the same for...
