## Resource

In this special episode, NLE student and mom of a non-speaking speller, Daria Kotenko , interviews me about the ideas behind Non Linear Education : why "readiness" is a myth, how to teach anything through interest and tolerance, and what it really means to assume intelligence aggressively . We talk about the Web vs Bridge model of learning, building sensory capacity, and how parents can make education joyful and age-appropriate in just 10–15 minutes a day. 👉 Join Non Linear Education before doors close (Friday 11:59 PM PT)
