Brain Gains: So, You Want to Be Your Child's Learning Coach
represents the final link to the first two books of the Brain Smart
Trilogy. This third book recognizes the learning challenges
children face each day in learning environments defined by mandated
curriculums, mandated testing and shortened school years. For
example, from kindergarten through high school your child will be
responsible for assimilating and accommodating different school
curriculums regardless that these mandated curriculums often do not
take into account the many cognitive and emotional levels of each
student. That is, problems can develop for those children who are
not academically at the curriculum's grade level due to multiple
challenges and distractions, such as adapting to the peer group,
family dynamics or disharmony (divorce, child abuse etc.), delayed
physiological social development and cognitive delays that could
cause a life time of learning difficulties. Finally, a major
strength of this book is that it offers parents and teachers the
opportunity to incorporate learning techniques used by myself and
other successful learning coaches and learning specialists that
readers can employ for specific student learning challenges. Most
importantly, parents and teachers will not only have hands-on
learning techniques but their students and/or child will receive
knowledge catered to their learning needs they can employ for
future learning challenges.
