"Aim for
success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things
and move foreward with your life. Your real education begins when you step out the door."Dr.David M Burns
Discovering How Your Child Learns.......
Observe the ways your child appears to learn
best and think about the kinds of activities that capture his interest and attention. Check your observations with those of your child's teachers. Consider having him evaluated to find out in detail about strengths
and weaknesses and to suggest appropriate teaching methods and materials.
Help your child understand himself as a learner. Many children who are not successful in school or
in sporting activities (and sometimes, their parents and teachers, too) have trouble recognizing their strengths and knowing
how to develop and use them. Sometimes their strengths are masked by their difficulties.
One of the best ways to encourage children to be hopeful about themselves is to introduce them to
older students who can act as "Buddies"; with similar patterns of strengths and weaknesses. Often these individuals have discovered
alternative ways of thinking and learning and can provide practical help and encouragement that continued effort is worthwhile.
They demonstrate how hard work and effective strategies can lead to success.
Ultimately, the student determines this development himself. Desire is the basis of motivation.
Knowing how to desire is a mystery that is rarely solved, but in the end it is always up to the individual.

Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind.
To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all.
-Buddha
Education is the key to a better future for all our children. We must ensure that every child has the opportunity to
develop their full potential. For children with special educational needs and disabilities, too much barriers can stand in
their way of the right education and support. We must therefore help to remove barriers by giving these children with ‘special
rights’ the opportunity to succeed...more...
Inspired by Dr Montessori's remarkable vision and method, her love and respect for children, we aim to nurture the whole
child by stimulating and developing each child's unique intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual needs. We also strive
to instill a life-long love for learning in every child.
Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place
where it leads.

 Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking
what nobody has thought.

"Coaching is not about teaching the caterpillar
to fly, it is about creating an opening for it to see the possibility." Paul LeFebvre
A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person
with a certain set of attitudes.
