Description
Every parent wants to help their child fulfil their true potential but how can this best be achieved? Bernadette Tynan shows parents how they can identify and unlock their child's individual talents and skills so that they can flourish and gain confidence as well as good results. Bernadette's argument is that every child is talented - all we need to do for them to shine is find out what their particular talent is and help them develop it. There would have been no point in trying to encourage the young David Beckham to play the violin when his true talent lay in kicking a ball. Using a variety of techniques that she has made her own, Bernadette has worked with a large number of parents, children and schools around the world to help children achieve their full potential. Now these techniques will be brought to a wider audience at a time when parents are increasingly confused about how best to help their child.
