GLOBAL DREAM
Visualizing a Literate World
Global Dream is the product of years of trial and error based on international research. This research shows that a student-centered program focused on increasing the student’s thinking time and then responding to answers with immediate feedback is the ideal way to accelerate a student’s learning curve.
ALfA (Accelerating Learning for All)
The Change Education Needs
ALfA is a reverse methodology that uses cognitive mind connections, and self-led peer work to make learning accelerated and joyful. There is no rote learning and no teaching of the alphabet. Children go straight to reading words. They learn to decode and blend words from the first day. Even three-year olds can read three-letter words from the beginning and simple sentences within weeks.
