Have you ever wondered how to support neurodivergent children who struggle in a traditional school setting? Does the term "twice exceptional" leave you curious? This episode with Sam Young, founder of Young Scholar Academy and a dedicated advocate for neurodivergent education, is just what you need to learn more. Young, also a twice exceptional learner diagnosed with ADHD, contributes his invaluable experience and insights to our discussion about the unique challenges and immense potential of these exceptional learners.
We discuss recognizing and nurturing the distinct abilities and interests of twice exceptional students, without trying to shoehorn them into conventional norms. We also challenge traditional beliefs about education and work, opening up fresh perspectives for parents and educators to better support neurodivergent children.
Our conversation takes a deeper look at education's role in non-traditional learners' lives, promoting the allowance for exploration of passions and interests. We underline the significance of mentors and peers who understand and support these students. Young shares his experiences from his educational programs, demonstrating the impact of a supportive, understanding environment for learning and growth. This is a must-listen conversation for any parent, educator, or individual interested in neurodivergent education!
