Synopsis: Different minds learn differently, writes Dr. Mel Levine, one of the best-known learning experts and pediatricians in America today. Some students are strong in certain areas and some are strong in others, but no one is equally capable in all. Yet most schools still cling to a one-size-fits-all education philosophy. As a result, many children struggle because their learning patterns dont fit the way they are being taught.In his #1New York TimesbestsellerA Mind at a Time,Dr. Levine shows parents and those who care for children how to identify these individual learning patterns, explaining how they can strengthen a childs abilities and either bypass or help overcome the childs weaknesses, producing positive results instead of repeated frustration and failure.Consistent progress can result when we understand that not every child can do equally well in every type of learning and begin to pay more attention to individual learning patterns -- and individual minds -- so that we can maximize childrens success and gratification in life. InA Mind at a TimeDr. Levine shows us how.
