Reflections — Watch Those Corrections!

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

This reflection asks parents whether they are creating a good environment in which the child will become talented. Parents may create an unpleasant learning environment with too much criticizing, complaining, and correcting.

This episode is part of the “Reflections” series of podcast episodes, which are short, minutes long reflections about a quote or other thought from Dr. Shinichi Suzuki’s philosophy or writing. The purpose of these reflections is to give parents and teachers a chance to spend a few minutes thinking about how great the impact might be on the world and our children with merely a slight moment of reflection about a behavior, thought, or attitude.
