Early in Life & the Importance of Early Childhood Education | Steve Zwolak | TEDxDelmarLoopED

what happens early in life lasts a lifetime

all behavior has meaning

the critical moment for brain development is in the first five years

Yes, treating these kids like they are in prison! They really be there for more than five hours and they can’t even talk

Well done & said

Children are the future for us all. There is no investment more important or more lucrative than the investment in our children.

Can someone plainly put all five components.... Im finding to get the last four components.... 🙏🏼🙏🏼

As a future early childhood educator, I found this video so touching. I loved the perspective that Mr. Zwolak has on Early Childhood education and makes me super excited to become a teacher!

Really amazing 💕

Such an inspiring sharing. Thank you Mr. Zwolak!

Incredibly insightful. Thank you so much for this important perspective that is rarely seen in mainstream

Thank you so very much 🙏🏻

There is no doubt that these are not easy ask. That being said, it is absolutely possible. Wonderful suggestions

Ce que vous dites est extrêmement important et vrai ! Il faut comprendre l'âme et le cœur en premier lieu ! Bravo pour cette présentation !

This is a really great speech!

This was amazing.

well, certainly reaching students emotionally is ideal and the classroom has to be something that is evolving. but I don't know that that isnt happening. i suspect these schools he is speaking about are some specific to the US

Thank you for this 😌

Any solutions to helping our children, families, and teachers?

The maturation of the cultural word requires a hardship similar to the weight of mountains.
How many educational holes are left without blockages
By intellectuals and writers on the pretext of their preoccupation with the battlefield of the job and the search for a source of livelihood.
The dilemmas of education are increasing because the subject of poetry has been abolished, and you know that building, drawing, writing, and every fine craft needs a philosophical vision that comes from poetry first, second and third.
The construction of fortresses for the new generation must pass through several factors, the most important of which is the establishment of the concepts of respect for parents, teachers, society, the law and the homeland, the bestowal of in-kind and material prizes, and the intensification of security efforts in order to encircle the child’s mind with all available means of protection.
How can we sail in a clumsy boat?!

We must return to literary libraries, to targeted cinema, to honest work, to solidarity, cooperation, and brotherhood away from fanaticism, disagreements and differences of all kinds.

This is a great speech. It’s all true, and this is motivating. Early childhood has the highest number of turnover, more than any other profession. It’s one of the lowest paying jobs and many times does not offer benefits. If those things could change, then we may start seeing an improvement and a move in the direction the speaker is taking about. I don’t think any teachers come to the field expecting great monetary gains however a livable wage is necessary. It’s sad, there’s many of us that feel this is our life’s calling, work so hard to educate ourselves, to honor our children and family members who we serve yet we barely scrape by. If it weren’t for my husband’s income I could not work as a preschool teacher. I make more money working in a grocery store.

Preschool teacher makes a great impact on a child's entire life. All it takes is 5 years to change society.
