Teaching Humanity Remotely with Dr. Mindy Shaw - Ep 102

In this brief edition, Dr. Shaw discusses a situation that not only falls into her area of specialization as a teacher, but it also has personal significance for her based on her own family experience.  Here, she shares thoughts and feelings about children who are struggling readers.  Dr. Shaw admits that she was one... that her daughter was as well... and she reflects on the pressures and the potential feeling of under-achievement that might be arise for a child who takes longer than some other children to grasp the skill of reading.  Dr. Shaw offer sound advice about handling the possible stress and strain associated, and she provides a list of tips for the best parenting modes for dealing with a struggling reader at home.  This is a quick but powerful podcast, and we hope you find it helpful.
