Academic Services
2024-01-08 18:00 - 19:30 | To be confirmed Centre, 2 Be Confirmed, Derby, DE1 2FS
Transform X Academic Services Programme
About Us
Academic Services Programme draws upon educational neuroscience and psychology to help students gain an insight into how they can use their brain to study less and learn better.
Our research and experience show that each student is different, with different skills, different genetic profiles, different desires in life, and learns at a different speed.
This instructional program aims to inspire our young people and students to study to learn, help develop their mental capacities, promote the achievement of worthy goals, and solve personal problems.
Our Mission
Our principal mission is to help students, young people, collectively and individually in acquiring knowledge and good behavior so that they can become increasingly autonomous, increasingly intelligent, and less dependent.
To support this mission, we have created two separate and interconnected personal development programs – Engineering of Learning. This includes:
Academic Development program objectives include the following…

Creation of study models and learning strategies
Ways of managing stress and fear
Help with choice of career, courses and universities.
Support for CAS applications and Student Finance forms

Professional Development program objectives include the following…

Creating strategies for defining and achieving personal goals
Job interview techniques (dealing with stress and anxiety)
Organisation, performance, and effectiveness at work
Reinforce the value of discipline, trust, and persistence and,
The development of a proactive attitude.

Goal
We aim to help young people…

eliminate conditioning that instigates a lazy and losing mindset and install empowering beliefs that encourage a more constructive mindset and a positive attitude.
Cultivate a diversified thought, design a personalized study model and motivate a differentiated behavior that aims to reflect an identity of its own in an integrated world.

Attitude is considered by many teachers and educational experts as an essential factor of a person’s success or failure.
Behaviour is the mirror where each individual projects his or her image – his or her attitude. And behaviour is consequently the indicative factor of success or failure of any individual.
Knowledge is power and this power is reflected in our behaviour. Good knowledge is necessary to draw up a well-defined plan and good behaviour is essential in achieving a real and worthy goal.
To finish
Academic Services will also challenge the cultural myths. We strive to install new beliefs which encourage a constructive mentality and a positive proactive attitude.
Dictation
We are driven by the desire to achieve results and our mission encompasses that you can succeed like anyone else on planet Earth.
Our mission is to help people believe and succeed!
And we believe you.
“There’s only one success: being able to spend your life in your own way.” – Christopher Morley

Introverted Moves
2024-01-08 17:30 - 20:30 | To be confirmed Centre, 2 Be Confirmed, Derby, DE1 2FS
What is Introverted Moves?
Introverted Moves is on a mission to spread joy and advocate for mental health. I use juggling and table tennis to encourage mindfulness and wellbeing. Both activities can provide many moments of achievement and satisfaction.
Are you up for giving either of these activities a try, or perhaps do you know anyone that would?
Both are effective in supporting people with their mental health. I want people to know that no matter how difficult life can be, it can get better.
What do I offer?
Juggling
I provide an open space for people to come and try juggling using the various equipment available. It is an opportunity for people to learn off myself and each other, have fun with no judgement and make new friends.
If you want a private session, we can do that too. We could either go to a venue, or I can come to your house – wherever is best. I can work with you on your juggling to get you ready to show off to friends and family.
I can also entertain at a birthday party or an event. Let’s have a discussion and I can be there!
Table Tennis
Here, I do Group Sessions and 1-2-1’s.
Group Sessions go over the basics, whilst always making the exercises engaging, fun and different.
1-2-1’s are tailored towards the individual. We go at your pace. Drills are delivered depending your level and needs.
Participation in Introverted Moves Sessions:
Benefits
· Hand-eye coordination.
· Concentration/Focus.
· Spatial awareness.
· Peripheral vision.
· Exercise.
· Improves mental health.
· Self-improvement.
· Learning life principles.
· Perseverance.
· Fun.
· Sociable.
· Discipline.
· Rewarding.
Outcomes
· Entertained/Feeling lifted.
· Learning something new.
· Desire to keep practicing.
· Making new friends.
· Creating a community.
· People feel they have found a safe space.
· Achievement
· Improved mental health.
Both activities can be challenging but extremely rewarding.
Other Plans
I have other things I am working on in the background which will help with mental health and wellbeing. I look forward to sharing this with you as things develop. For now, give juggling and/or table tennis a go!
