The Learning Well Method – Part 1

Hi, this is Tony Lazar and Alan McMahon

Thanks for all the great feedback on our articles and reports. Its fantastic to know that it has been of use to so many of you and of course your children.

We spoke to a London based Head Teacher yesterday who was looking for ways of motivating children to do more outside of the classroom to improve their literacy and learning. During the discussion she asked us to summarize The Learning Well four stage Method of learning for children.

Just what is the secret of the method that has a tremendous impact on children’s literacy and related subjects and is so really very easy to learn?

We told her the answer and would love you to have The Learning Well Method summary as well.

Why? Because you can easily use the method to massively improve your children’s abilities at school!

We will therefore summarize the method in this Blog and three further Blogs as the method is a four stage process.
So, here is the first part of the summary that we produced:

When learning Multi-path methods are the best

Images can be large, small, bright, dim, colour, black and white.Sounds can be loud, quite, have a rhythm or be random. Feelings can be hot, cold, hard, soft, fast, and slow.

The ways of describing how the brain processes and recalls are of course far more than we have set out here and this multitude of possible descriptions is a powerful pointer to the best way for you to experience learning and for your brain to learn.

For many people who want to learn something the method they will use will be to read and re read a script until such time as they can “remember” it. Obviously this is making use of just one method available to the brain for learning and most people, including children, will recall only a small portion of what they have read in this way.

Is there a better way? Yes there is!

Mapping is a brilliant memory technique making it easy for children to remember what they have read and at the same improve their learning and recall of the subject

When your children read their understanding, learning, and recall of the subject matter will significantly improve if you use a memory technique that makes a pattern, representation or model of the written material.

So says the work of various researchers, so why not do this and greatly help your children to make learning easy.

How can you make and use a model and and the same time significantly improve your children’s abilities in literacy and all related subjects?
