Shyness is the feeling of apprehension, lack of comfort or awkwardness, especially when a person is around other people. This commonly occurs in new situations or with unfamiliar people. A shy person may simply opt to avoid social situations instead.
This module looks at characteristics of shyness, how we can identify shyness in ourselves and others, how we can help overcome shyness and help others to do the same.
