SHORT BIO
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Gregg Goodhart, The Learning Coach, teaches the science of how people
actually learn. He has taught for over three decades, including 13 years
chairing and building a department at one of the most prestigious high
schools in the country. He found his answers in cognitive and behavioral
neuroscience, proved them in his own classroom, and now coaches
musicians, students, teachers, and coaches in any field.

LONG BIO, IN GREGG'S OWN WORDS
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I have been teaching for over three decades and have spent much of that
time trying to figure out how to do it better.

For 13 years I chaired and developed a department at one of the most
prestigious high schools in the country. In my quest to get the best
information for myself and my teachers I found answers in cognitive and
behavioral neuroscience and psychology.

I began applying these principles, just a few at first, in the classroom
and was able to get significant results. Over years I refined these
techniques, getting rid of some, revisiting others, and spending my time
figuring out how to best get students to genuinely learn the curriculum.

Along the way I found the elements necessary for doing this, which
included the path to develop a love for genuine learning, and not just
passing tests. I also found that tests became easy to pass when genuine
higher learning was occurring.

To my surprise I found that these principles applied to all learning. I
began to hold meetings with my colleagues and coached teachers in the
arts, sciences, maths, languages, history as well as our sports coaches.

I was encouraged by colleagues to share these things, which are available
to all through many sources of research, with a greater community, and so
began my clinician and consultancy career.

I love sharing this with others and helping develop educational
interventions. I love creating lightbulb moments in teachers and students.
