ONE CHILD

Therapeutic Education is about Connection: Connecting with one's physical body, emotions and thoughts. Connecting with a world of ideas, capacities, and practices. Connecting with a community of others. Connecting with what is childlike in each of us. This is embodied learning... A neuro-developmental approach begins with the individual, considering the whole child when evaluating relative strengths and weaknesses in the context of overall development. Difficulties with learning or behavior are seen in the context of a full and healthy life biography and the potential gifts each human being brings to the world... Assessment tools to help understand the riddle that each child presents, discover inherent strengths, and structure individual instruction to connect the student to and through these strengths.
