Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#306: Teaching Social Skills in Safe Digital Spaces with Coach Yana
Q: How are you helping develop capability in children, especially in the context of online spaces?
Capability is built through daily, positive interactions, recognizing and reinforcing good ideas, giving children meaningful roles (like IT support in clubs), and ensuring a supportive, present adult who engages with them on their level.
#306: Teaching Social Skills in Safe Digital Spaces with Coach Yana
Q: So what brought you to this space?
Life path as a teacher-in-training since childhood, combined with a mentor's advice about fixing problems when you see them, led Coach Yana to create age-appropriate, safe content for children and to found social clubs and courses.
#304: How to Connect With Your Child Through Intentional Parenting | Olaolu Ogunyemi
Q: As a parent, as a marine officer and an author, why are you here?
To talk about ways to connect with children, build teachable moments, and apply leadership and personal growth to parenting—drawing on my own experiences with my kids and the lessons I've learned about staying grounded and intentional.
#303: Help Your Dyslexic Child Read and Write Using Their Strengths I Russell Van Brocklen
Q: Can you explain the half-circle process and how it helps dyslexic students?
The half-circle process begins with identifying a student's area of extraordinary motivation, then framing a goal as a specific sentence about that interest, and finally using word analysis and a universal theme to guide writing and comprehension. It emphasizes moving from the specific interest to broader understanding, with reinforced practice to build reading skills through writing.
#302: Reading Confidence Starts Here with Daniela Feldhausen
Q: How can people get in touch with you or learn more about your tutoring?
The best way is through the website Kids Up Reading Tutors, and they're also on Facebook and Instagram; Daniela notes the spelling of her name is tricky, so she usually directs people to the website for contact.
