Where has this material come from?
This free email series is taken from the expertise of Ben Gilbert, and our Caring for TCKs course.
It dives into the unique world of Third Culture Kids (TCKs). We start by defining what it means to be a TCK, then delve into the distinctive traits that set them apart. It teaches how to be TCKs' supportive parent or teacher as they navigate the complexities of cultural transitions and help them embrace their unique identity.
Whether you are a TCK, or are close to a TCK, this course is sure to help you understand the benefits and challenges that life as a TCK brings, and how to address the difficult bits.
