After wrapping up the @YEPeducation program this week, my dad and I reflected on how much more independence he feels, and how excited he is to keep practicing these new skills in his every day life! #LetsTeachAdults

While doing the self-assessment last week, my dad let me know he’d like to learn more about the basic settings of his phone. We went over notifications, reminders, the ‘do not disturb’ setting for when he’s in meetings, Apple Pay and Siri. #LetsTeachAdults #YEPeducation

@mx_owen @YEPeducation Sounds like a great lesson! What was her favourite part?

[Kate @YepKate]

@mani_YEP @YEPeducation Great idea to take a break! Everyone could benefit from this. Did you guys do a workout video together?

[Kate @YepKate]

@SalloumYep @YEPeducation I like that you were able to improve your lessons after using the question matrix! Your mom seems like she is improving so much every week!👍

[Kate @YepKate]

@laurennovello @YEPeducation Wow this is such a great idea! We have to use so much technology throughout the day - it's nice to remember to go out and enjoy nature😊

[Kate @YepKate]

@kmyall13 @YEPeducation How is your mom finding the app so far? Does she feel comfortable using it on her own? My dad is finally coming around to online banking too. It's so convenient but so many people prefer going into the bank still!

@mrshariz So far he's liking Revisionist History!

This week I helped my dad discover the Podcasts app! He has a long commute to work so is excited for the time to go by faster. If anyone has any podcast recommendations let me know😊 #YEPeducation #LetsTeachAdults

@Brandon13065250 That's awesome! This makes me want to learn this game too, haha. Let us know if he ends up beating you😂

[Kate @YepKate]

@kmyall13 @YEPeducation That's such a convenient lesson! Definitely a useful app for a golfer👍

[Kate @YepKate]

@Amna47750515 @YEPeducation I like that you used the Question Matrix with your old tweets! I feel like that would be so helpful to reflect and see if your mom still understands those past lessons, or if she still needs some clarity. 😊

[Kate @YepKate]

@SalloumYep @YEPeducation This seems like a really clear and effective assessment! I found it helpful to check in with my learner this week. Did any of their answers surprise you?

[Kate @YepKate]

@mani_YEP Great questions! What did she answer about what else she would enjoy learning?

[Kate @YepKate]

I gave this assessment to my dad to fill out this week. I thought these questions would give me a good sense of how I've been teaching, and how I can improve. They will also allow him to self-reflect on how much he's actually learned so far! #LetsTeachAdults @YEPeducation

[Kate @YepKate]

@CharlotteFlei14 Thanks, I looked into that and it seems so interesting! I'm probably going to start listening to it too haha

[Kate @YepKate]

@GarrettHack1 Thanks for the recommendations! I'll tell him to check them out :)

[Kate @YepKate]

@NarthakiS @YEPeducation I like that you created the lesson to fit your mom's strengths and learning style! That also sounds like a fun activity to do together.

[Kate @YepKate]

@SalloumYep @YEPeducation Haha this is so great! I love how happy she looks playing. I also find that my dad learns better by practicing👍 can't wait to see what you do for the next lesson!

[Kate @YepKate]

@mani_YEP @YEPeducation Love this idea! I just changed over from apple music to Spotify and it's such a difference. How is she liking it so far?
