"ANDI Social Skills Module has provided an excellent environment for my son to interact with his peer as well as all people surrounding. He is confident to initiate a good conversation with his peers, understand the concept of socialising, more patient in turn-taking, more awareness of rules and regulations."
- Mum of 4-year-old
"The Social Skills Module by ANDI Initiative is an effective way and great environmet for our kids to explore communication with peers. My son is much more confident in expressing thoughts and ideas now, using whatever language he has.
It has encouraged him to positively try to ask questions, and respond to others' questions. With this programme, he is actively seeking to learn new words and tries to get us to correct his sentences in order to express himself better.
Totally awesome!"
- Dahlia, mum to a 6-year-old
