Features: The author of this book is a renowned expert on learning problems. After 15 years of research, he found that there are no "academic disabled" individuals who are born. Many children fail in school not because of their lack of talent, but because the education system cannot adapt to their intelligence types and learning styles. The author, Armstrong, has long been dedicated to helping children overcome learning difficulties and deeply recognizes that every child is intellectually gifted. Human intelligence has seven main types, and each person can excel in one aspect of these types. The seven main talent types are: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, spatial, interpersonal, and intrapersonal (self-awareness). Children's talent types vary, and their learning styles are diverse as well. It is precisely the modern education system and methods that do not adapt to the diversity of children's talent types and learning styles that have become the main reason for the academic failure of millions of children. The purpose of this book is to help parents and teachers discover their children's talent types and unique learning styles. The author proposes a series of methods tailored to the seven types of intelligence to enable children to learn in the most suitable way for them. Based on his rich professional experience, the author also analyzes other important factors that affect children's learning. Whether your child is a "underachiever" or top-performing, the analysis and suggestions in this book will be helpful to you. Since its publication, this book has received an enthusiastic response. In the past 20 years, the United States has launched a very vibrant educational movement—"Multiple Intelligence Education." The author, Dr. Armstrong, is one of the main driving forces behind this movement.
