This week, we’re honoring Deborah Zimmerman—the woman who refused to believe struggling learners were limited by what others expected of them.
At a time when many believed these students simply needed easier materials, Deborah continued asking harder questions. She believed growth was possible. She believed thinking could be strengthened. And she believed students were capable of far more than they had been told.
That conviction became the foundation of what we now know as NILD Educational Therapy®.
“Much can be done with our kids, regardless of what the research says.”

"In outstanding classrooms, teachers do more listening than talking, and students do more talking than listening. Terrific teachers often have teeth marks on their tongues." (Alfie Kohn)
If we want deep thinking and meaningful collaboration, we must design conditions where students do the talking, the reasoning, and the problem-solving.
When we talk less, students think more.

The children we work with are brilliant. Yes. They. Are.
