258. Unlocking Potential: Strategies For Every Learner With Down Syndrome (w/Mrs. Brown

Friends, we’re so excited to be joined by Mrs. Brown today, you’ve heard us mention her many times over the years! She has developed a successful and innovative program that teaches reading and other academic skills to learners ages three to adult. We learned about her passion and gift for teaching individuals with Down syndrome in 2018 and had her on the show during our first season. Today, she’s back to talk about her program, “So Happy To Learn,” to share memorable teaching moments, give us tips and strategies for every learner, and so much more! We know we’re headed into summer breaks and vacations, today our episode is packed with tips for summer learning and lifelong learners. As Mrs. Brown says, “Learning is continual!”
