Love Language Power

Can you speak your child's love language? If you want your child to feel loved, valued and accepted, you need to speak their language. If your child's love language is different than yours, you need to express love to them in their language not yours. Research confirms that people who grow up feeling loved are happier, more resilient, and do better in school and life. Today's podcast will show you how to determine you and your child's love language and how to speak all five love languages. Implementing this knowledge will create closer relationships and make you a better parent, spouse, friend and teacher.

Teaching is all about being an effective communicator. In today's episode, we will be talking about ways to improve your communication skills. We will show you that your nonverbal and verbal communication must match for your messages to be understood. We will share with you how to use I Messages when you must correct behavior. We also will talk about the importance of using the technique of Reflective Listening to truly understand what your loved ones are saying and feeling. You will also learn about the theory of Transactional Analysis which explains that all people communicate with three ego states, the child, parent and adult, which refers to the ways that we think, feel and behave, changing across time and contexts. Understanding these concepts and implementing new strategies will help you to sidestep some of the pitfalls that can sideline your teaching day when communication channels seem to break down.

How do you know if your child's brain is ready for what you are teaching? Knowing your
child's cognitive development stage will enable you to introduce concepts when your
child is ready to comprehend them. Understanding Piaget's developmental stages and

information for a teacher. In today's podcast, we show you how to access your child's
