Ms. Bobbie DePorter, a world leader in youth achievement spoke to parents and educators about her most recent book, The Seven Biggest Teen Problems And how to turn them into Strengths.
Bobbi and her organization reach, motivate, inspire and teach youth and teens at SuperCamp, a learning-to-learn and life skills program. Her book is based on learning gained from running the SuperCamp program with some 45,000 graduates over the past 25 years.
Amy Smith, our instructor for this workshop and one of SuperCamp's leading facilitators, was in Hong Kong to teach this fun, interactive and practical workshop. Children learned powerful ways to remember anything at any time (e.g. vocabulary words, history dates, and any other important facts) as well as innovative ways such as Mind MappingR to help take useful notes and organize information the way our brain pictures information.
