Are YOU ready to thrive in your transition?

Being a younger teen is rough.  Being a tween or younger teen TCK in transition is even tougher.  You have no plans to stay in your passport country, but here you are.  Older siblings and friends who will stay for university or work get most of the attention when it comes to transition.  We want to change that.

Here’s the thing–older teens in transition tend to be surrounded by others in similar transitions.  All college freshmen are in transition. All junior high students are not. Even though most high school freshmen experience some transition, often they do not have a cross-cultural element thrown on top of learning their way around a new school–and usually they expect to be at that school for more than a year.

Traditionally, transition seminars have focused on MKs and other TCKs entering college.  We’re here to change that! At Interaction, we believe kids in middle school and high school should have their own transition seminar.   We can’t go through transition for you, but we can help you do it well.

Come prepared to learn. We will focus on the expected elements of a cross-cultural transition as well as the unique aspects of this transition during early adolescence.  Expect learning to be fun and interactive. We’ll explore themes of TCK identity, transition, how to thrive where you’re planted–even if it is only temporary. We’ll also get a look at American culture through the lens of the southeastern part of the country.

Come prepared for fun and new friends.  Let’s face it, there are very few places you can go where everyone can relate to most of your life.  This is one of them. The staff have all lived and worked overseas with TCKs. We get you, and so will the other participants.  We don’t want you to miss out.  

We know it’s not easy being a tween or a younger teen.  We can’t change all of that. We can help as you cross-cultures.  Are you ready? We can hardly wait to meet you!
