Whether you have a child with learning difficulties, or are someone who grew up with learning issues, you will be totally blown away by this video. Show it to everyone in the family, but most importantly show it to the child concerned. It will save their self esteem, their confidence, their life!

Every teacher should see this
28 Feb 2007
I saw this at a workshop for Autism Spectrum Disorder. Richard Lavoie is a dynamic speaker and gave an excellent workshop. As the parent of an Asperger's child I came away with a better understanding of what my daughter must go through every day. PBS would do well to give it a wider release on DVD at a cheaper price than currently available here.

Can't You Try Harder?
23 Aug 2007
Wow...this video really opened my eyes about the challenges 'different' learners face...especially in the tea kettle called the classroom.
For these kids, forcing them to "try harder" is not only misguided, but downright unfair.
Kudos to Lavoie for this powerful experience...it's well worth the cost.

Creates empathy for children with learning disabilities
15 Feb 2007
I saw the video in grad school and it forever changed the way I view children with learning disabilities and how I teach and interact with all students. (I am a regular ed kindergarten teacher.) I was astounded that Richard LaVoie could create the disabilities in me while I watched.
I think that every school district should have this in their library. It makes teachers more empathetic and therefore more effective for their students.
