Ep. 190 | How To Use ZPD To Accelerate Your Child’s Learning

Show Notes: In this episode, I share my favorite skill-teaching technique that I have used with my sons for the last 18 years. The technique is based on a concept known as the "zone of proximal development" (aka Z.P.D.) first popularized by famed Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky. The best time to help your children learn new and challenging skills is when they are in the Z.P.D. Learn how to recognize when your child is in the zone, and how your assistance can lead to exponential growth.   Follow us: Enroll in PrepWell Academy Follow on Instagram Follow on Facebook If you want to support the show, here are three immediate steps to take.
