Episode Synopsis

Emily is an educational expert, author, and advocate for students with special education needs. She also owns EBL Coaching, a one-on-one, specialized tutoring program that offers individualized, research-based tutoring to children with specialized learning needs in grades pre-K to 12. She has done hundreds of interviews, as she is truly an expert in helping children with learning and attention challenges.
We talked about resources available to students who need help - both in schools and that she offers. We talked about changes in education - expectations, curriculum, and identifying students who need help.

We stayed away from anything that might be political so I'll link a couple videos by others here, they are topics to consider. I might make ranting videos about these later:
1) The injection of activism or "woke" concepts: Do they cause harm? How widespread is it? Does it take the focus away from learning?: https://youtu.be/2OfYjNXLlU0?si=XCSMu6ZmHRaoyEwo (America Uncovered)
2) Charter schools / school choice - Should be able to take government dollars and put them towards a private school?: https://youtu.be/lN8urWXJuYw?si=pTyfYiHT97QiQMhe (Stossel)
