[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a point in time about 15 years ago when SAES had 100% of their teachers attend training of a program called “All Kinds of Minds.” Unfortunately, tjst peogram became associated with “kids with different learning styles” which, in turn, was misunderstood by some as targeting kids with special needs. SAES eventually realized this and ultimately made a break with that program (longer story not relevant here), and formed CTTL which focussed on teacher training explicitly for all students - including the strongest. Of course, the very best students there benefit usually less from that than others (those who can really teach themselves), but overall the program is positive. For one thing, it adds an additional layer of academic professionalism for the faculty which, in turn, helps to retain the best teachers. [/quote] Parent of SAES students here. Well said, PP.
