Navigating the world of learning is not something that just comes naturally. Like a basketball player on the courts there are hours of practice behind the scene that takes the player to that amazing game. As a teacher I get to meet with all kinds of students. Some have all the skills of learning in place, others have the raw talent but lack the practical skills. Some students just don’t have the time in their lives to dedicate themselves to their learning. That’s okay -we all bring particular strengths and weaknesses to the learning table. These commentaries are presented and prepared to help those willing and able to learn to get over some of the obstacles in learning that present themselves.
