Intervention specialists and tutors should be progress monitoring at least monthly or perhaps even weekly, depending on your student’s needs. This will help determine whether the intervention is working or not.

Whenever you say anything that challenges someone’s beliefs or values and it triggers high emotions in them, they become incapable of accurate comprehending what you are saying because the emotional brain will distort the information before it reaches the cortex.

Prior to the inception of language hand gestures played a significant role in communion. Neuroscience research shows when teachers use gestures cognitive load is decreased (meaning the brain is not working as hard to comprehend) and the working memory functions more efficiently.

What we think alters our perceptions & can change our physiology impacting brain chemistry & genetic makeup. The fact is that what we think impacts outcomes. Teachers working in schools where students consistently fail have 2 guard against thinking these students will always fail
