Charles Murray - Real Education
A wonderful book by one of the most revered social commentators of our time, Real Education is an indictment on the efforts by yet another governmental agency to preclude that all children should be raised to the same bar.
The four assumptions that he bases all of his arguments are the following:
1. Ability varies.
2. Half of the children are below average.
3. Too many people are going to college.
4. America's future depends on how we educate the academically gifted.

Do you agree or disagree?
Charles Murray is voicing a very controversial topic, and one that teachers have been wanting to voice but were afraid of doing so. Not very politically correct, yet accessible and compelling, Real Education is a must read for all parents, educators, and policy-makers. Even if you don't agree with its arguments, you will be hard pressed to find a more clearly-stated position about the meta-assumptions of education.
Charles Murray, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, is the author of “Real Education: Four Simple Truths for Bringing America’s Schools Back to Reality.”

Timely Peter Drucker quote
We greatly overestimate what we can do in one year. But we greatly underestimate what is possible for us in five years. - Peter Drucker
The Darling Buds of May
Renaissance Asian here....
with an update on tutoring in May.
School's over. Now what?
Need to improve that retention!
Studies show that more information is lost over the summer than
at any other time during the year.
To prevent brain-drain,
come to me for some unconventional tutoring.
That will raise your grades.
Don't let schools do it alone.
Supplement your kid's progress with
some wonderful Tutoring by Tran.
