Social skills are the ability to interact and engage with other people in a manner that is appropriate to the situation. This begins with skills such as making appropriate eye contact, taking basic turns during a game or conversations and extends to staying on topic during a conversation and sharing interest with other people. For many people with language difficulties, social communication disorders and Autism Spectrum Disorder, this can be a challenge. We support your child to learn and practice these skills and provide you with strategies to help your child maintain these skills so that they can be used in a range of environments.
