Instilling confidence in children is as important for teachers as teaching them a subject. The teacher’s job is halved if a disciple believes that they are capable of anything. An interesting technique used by a teacher in the US to encourage her children to believe in themselves is shown in a video that has gone viral.
A video of a female teacher named Phillips asking children to test positive in front of a mirror was posted by Mr Joseph Roberts on his personal Instagram page. In the video, the students are seen making positive affirmations about themselves in front of a mirror and feeling strongly about it.

An affirmation is a short but effective statement. They empower you to actively manage your thoughts. Affirmations can increase self-worth by increasing your belief in both your own abilities and your positive self-perception.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information in the US, “self-affirmations are actions that affirm one’s self-worth, often reflecting on one’s core values, which can give individuals a broader view of themselves.” This in turn may allow individuals to move beyond specific threats to self-integrity or self-competence.”
“A large body of literature, however, shows that a class of interventions called self-affirmation has benefits in threatening situations; affirmations can reduce stress, increase well-being, improve academic performance and make people more open to behavior change.”
