Clear+Vivid with Alan Alda

David Flink on How We Can All Think Differently About Learning


Listen Later

How do you learn? It may be different from how I learn. David Flink knows about learning differences. Dave was diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD in grade school, but with the right support he got into an Ivy League college. There, he helped start a program for kids with a diagnosis of dyslexia or ADHD to be mentored by college students with the same diagnosis. Dave's program, "Eye to Eye," is now entering its 20th year and Dave has written a book, titled "Thinking Differently," recounting his experience and that of hundreds of others. In this episode, Dave talks with Alan Alda about how we all learn differently. And that’s something we can all learn from.
