StrengthBuilders is the world’s first multilingual emotional intelligence skills program in Mandarin and English, and our curriculum is designed for children ages 5-11. Every child has unique skills and experiences – let’s build on them!
The StrengthBuilders assessment doesn’t look or feel like a test, so children are more likely to buy in and stay engaged. Compare scores against nationally recognized benchmarks with a detailed behavioral skills report.
Our AI-driven algorithm took seven years to develop, and it has been extensively reviewed by the National Science Foundation. StrengthBuilders continually evaluates skills, measures progress, and adjusts accordingly.
Our programs are available in English and Mandarin with affordable one-year subscriptions.
