Education

As a professor and a father, I have developed a deep interest in educational philosophy and pedagogical techniques necessary for the most effective transfer of knowledge.

I cannot recommend highly enough the work that Lisa VanDamme has accomplished at the VanDamme Academy in California.  Watch Lisa on YouTube to get an in-depth look at their approach to education.

I have also written a bit about education on this blog, both theory and application.  Take a look at some of my better posts below.
