Join activities to support your wellbeing

Thinking about your wellbeing is important for making the most of your time at university and as you take the next steps in your career journey. As you move onto university, you’ll receive information on your university’s wellbeing services – so if you ever feel like you need support during your studies, they will be able to help.

You can also find some resources here on Pathways Extra – visit our wellbeing page to read more and to access links to some external support services. You’ll find a link to our National Geographic Learning Anthology on International Student Wellbeing there, too – a collection of work created by Kaplan International Pathways’ students and alumni.

Resilience and Mindfulness

  ^{Kate Mishcon, Director of Resilience Programmes.}

We have recently started offering alumni events in partnership with Kate Mishcon, an accredited mindfulness expert and resilience coach with over 20 years of experience. She is also Director of Resilience Programmes for Kaplan International. Recently, Kate led a Public Speaking Confidence Masterclass exclusively for alumni, which you can watch back now as a recording, here: Public Speaking Confidence Masterclass with Kate Mishcon (https://pathways.kaplaninternational.com/mod/lti/view.php?id=711023).

If you'd like to see what our alumni have to say about this event, you can see a post by Walaa on LinkedIn, here: Mastering Public Speaking with Mindfulness (www.linkedin.com).
