Review for All Kinds of Minds, Durham, NC, USA
For 7 years before retiring in 2008 at age 74, I frequently sent my children AKOM tapes about learning issues to help their 6 kids. Now as a volunteer I spread the AKOM message via the teacher with whom I work, and find the focus on one child at a time, and on the strengths of that child does work. Using AKOM approaches, many of the scholars with whom I worked last year went up 2 steps in the California STAR testing, and most at least one.
