Our Educational Theory
This is a big topic ranging from teaching styles to learning styles and much more. Wikipedia defines educational or learning theory as: “How students receive, process, and retain knowledge during learning. And how cognitive, emotional and environmental influences, including prior experience, all play a part in how understanding (or a world view) is acquired or changed.”
The cornerstones of our educational theory are learning how to learn, social-emotional learning, and cognitive behavioral therapy. We’ll talk about each one of these below, starting with our most fun cornerstone and ending with our goals. But in short:
Our educational theory and goal. (TLDR.)
We believe that kids (and adults) are driven by passion and that they learn by doing — playing. So every concept we teach is accompanied by a hands-on game or activity. We believe both our theories and lessons, should be evidence-based, meaning tested and proven in the real world. And, our end goal is to empower people to teach themselves how to overcome obstacles and live the life of their dreams.
