The first full-time three-day intensive church educational project "Keys" was held in Moscow for curators who organize the process of preparing students for the Unified State Exam. 16 people from Moscow and the regional training centers of the project took part in the intensive course. Teachers and psychologists conducted classes for the curators. Archpriest Mikhail Potokin, head of the Keys project and Interim Chairman of the Synodal Department for Church Charity and Social Service, spoke at the event. During the intensive course, the curators learned how to build trusting relationships with teenagers, motivate them in difficult situations and help them not only with their studies, but also with choosing their future.
Curators of the Keys project from different regions of Russia — Ivanovo, Ryazan, Pskov, Kursk, Kostroma and other regions - met at the intensive course in Moscow. The objectives of the event were the training of curators, the exchange of experience and the formation of a common approach within the project.
Daria Chever, a social designer and teacher of educational support for teenagers, and Roman Lebedev, the head of the Careful Support project, spoke during the intensive course. The training on dealing with difficult behavior, conflicts and the development of personal motivation among teenagers was conducted by Anton Skulachev, a literature teacher, a member of the Russian Language Council under the President of the Russian Federation, and Anna Hegai, a psychologist and graduate student at the Higher School of Economics. There was also a session from the Contribution to the Future Charitable Foundation, which presented the Developing Environment program, aimed at creating conditions for the personal development of children and adults through an educational environment.
In addition, the intensive participants received practical training on digital tools that are used to work with students, including familiarization with the internal platform of the project.
Archpriest Mikhail Potokin, head of the Keys project, thanked the curators for participating in the intensive course and stressed how important their role is in the lives of teenagers.
