Episode description

 

I learned about the revolutionary concept of what I call now “unconditional teaching” from Glen Doman’s book “Teach your baby to Read”. And today I am with his grandson - Spencer Doman, the current director of Doman International. 

We discuss neuroplasticity, the role of challenge and newness in learning and immense necessity of presuming competence in children with disabilities.

Key Takeaways:

  • Physical exercise, diet, challenge, newness, and love drive neuroplasticity.
  • Teaching children in short, fast sessions enhances learning.
  • Critiques of the Doman Method
  • The importance of Family involvement
