13) How (and Why!) to Make or Modify Your Own Clothes with Sonya Philip

ATTENTION ALL PARENTS - DON'T MISS THIS ONEYameer Adhar, host of Voices In My Head gets inside the head of Sonya Philip, an educator with over three decades of teaching experience. With two post graduate degrees in education from the US including one in special education. She has taught at The American School in New Delhi and at The Lab School of Washington in DC. Sonya has attended several professional courses at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and at the Reggio Emilia Malaguzzi Centre. She is the founder/president of Learning Matters Foundation which is an innovative, non-profit organisation based in New Delhi, India, that seeks to address the educational needs of all children. I was drawn to the philosophy of Learning Matters as they believe that "all students can achieve success and find joy in learning". They connect the neuroscience research on the diversity of minds to classroom practice. I love their child centric approach where each child is respected and challenged according to their unique learning profile. The discussion on this episode of the podcast ranges from the very essence of learning, teaching styles, the importance of 'playing' and use of the right language for a child, to issues related to TECHNOLOGY and a whole lot more . Anyone that tunes in to this episode will see that Sonya is extremely passionate about what she does which I now know as "the most important job in the world". She has helped me to be a better (and less anxious) parent for which I am eternally grateful. Voices In My Head is a podcast dedicated to mental and physical health that will teach anyone aspiring to improve themselves and learn the secrets to become happy and healthy! Find your ultimate state of wellbeing and become the BEST version of YOU!
