Barbara Klein, Ed.D.

I am teaching a course at UCLA Extension, 216 Extension Lindbrook Center, meeting every Saturday, 8:30am-4:30pm, on February 26; March 5, 12 & 19.

Teachers who understand the unique personality and social characteristics of the gifted child are better able to help these sensitive and complicated children develop their learning potential. New research and insights about learning differences and special needs of gifted children are discussed. Parent-teacher interactions for success are explained and demonstrated. Case studies of issues related to gifted learners illuminate these challenging and rewarding students. Enrollment limited; advance enrollment required. Required textbook: Raising Gifted Kids: Everything You Need to Know to Help Your Exceptional Child Thrive (1st ed.) by B. Klein. Credit students must attend all meetings; no credit is awarded if a meeting is missed.
