In your book, you mention the need for getting on your child's team and discovering your child's "Learning Style." You outlined the "Five Aspects of Learning Style"-Disposition, Talents, Interests, Modality, and Environment. Could you touch on how you came up with these aspects and why they are so useful in trying to become a successful "coach"?

hodson.jpg (3897 bytes)Victoria:
All of aspects of learning style that we talk about in our book have been researched and written about in some way or another for years. We are building upon the work of many people who have come before us.

However, we bring all of the aspects of learning style together in a workbook like format and make it easily accessible to any parent or teacher.

These five aspects of learning style are useful in coaching a child for learning success because they keep your attention focused on the most important information of all-what the child's learning needs actually are rather than on what you interpret their needs to be or what you think he or she "should" be doing.

Coaches identify and build upon strengths.
By assessing the five aspects of learning style you will find out your child's strengths, and then we help you learn how to work with your child and build upon them.

Learning Aspect: Disposition

joe2.jpg (4335 bytes)Joe:
Within the learning aspect you call "disposition," you outlined five subcategories called: Performs, Produces, Invents, Relates/Inspires, Thinks/Creates along with a great way to assess how your child fits in. How did you develop these questions? How does knowing this about your child help you structure your child’s learning experiences?
