Helping individuals and families develop critical life skills to succeed in the 21st century

"Thank you to La Vie Institute., which really helps professionals especially me, to come out of my shell. It’s a package knowledge deal. I am applying it in my daily routine and I can share it with my kids too.”

 

Barbara Turalde (Professionals TPD Student)

“I like learning about the different social and cultural issues because it’s nice to be aware of what’s happening around (us). It affects the way we see or understand things and we become careful about our actions and words.  I also like to get to share my opinions even if everyone has a different one.”

 

— Diana Balila (Teens TPD student)

 

“My experience in La Vie Institute is extremely helpful for me in the long run, as I will be able to use the skills I have learned throughout my college and professional years to come. The mentors and staff were very polite and helpful in terms of what I needed to achieve…I would recommend this institute to other learners working on developing their personality.”

 

— Germaine Jamaji (Young Adults TPD Student)

 

“ I learned how to handle myself properly and how to improve in the things that I lack. I learned to always be aware of my actions/ gestures because of people’s different opinions . I learned that growing up is normal and I will face conflicts , problems and discover new things…and that it’s okay to feel this way.”

"The mentors are approachable and knowledgeable on the topics and the lessons are practical for life outside the classroom, which traditional schools often overlook in preparing students for the real world. The small number of students per class made each session feel more intimate and everyone can fully participate. La Vie is a school run on a sincere passion to help individuals bloom where they are planted and I highly recommend it!"

 

— Jessica Martinez (Young Adults TPD Program)

 

“Being in La Vie is a unique experience for me because I have never been to anything like this before. At first I didn’t see it as significant and thought the classes would be like the usual ones but the mentors elaborated the importance of knowing and learning the lessons every workshop. In my opinion, this is an investment people should consider for themselves.”
