Although this video describes how a teacher “teaches” a very difficult class, the video has application to anyone who has to teach someone. It directly applies to parents teaching their children difficult life skills. Dr. Thompson of the Verbal Judo Institute www.VerbalJudo.com describes how to take a student from the known (what they know) to the unknown (what you want them to learn). This is a valuable lesson - you need to build on your student’s / child’s experience so that you can take them where you want to go. This video was originally posted on www.PoliceOne.com.
