Description

Advanced learners often exhibit a strong drive for excellence, which can sometimes lead to perfectionism. While this can fuel motivation and high achievement, it can also lead to stress and self-criticism. Join Amy Lynne Shelton, executive director of the Center for Talented Youth, for a discussion about why it is essential for parents and educators to foster a balanced mindset and encourage students to embrace mistakes as valuable opportunities for growth.
