RESOURCES on Social Emotional Skills

  • Mindset Research

    Students who experience a) a firm belief in their potential, b) an optimistic vision for the future, and c) a strong sense of personal authenticity, perform better academically and forge more substantial relationships in life.  

    Several independent studies have been performed which validate the 7 Mindsets Academy impact in the following areas:

    • Improves Academic Performance
    • Improves Grit & Resilience
    • Improves Student Behavior

    What separates the 7 Mindsets from all other social emotional learning programs is a measured set of lasting, tangible improvements upon the mindsets of both students and educators.  By positively changing the way individuals think about themselves and their future, the 7 Mindsets empower them to live lives of passion, purpose, and meaning.
