akutibu private education supports mentally gifted students
Giften children often appear to be abnormal if the cause disruptions to their environment or if they are felt to lack adequate maturity for their age. We support gifted children and particularly capable children with school subject and we also support them psychologically. The gifted programs at Frankfurt am Main are taken care of by Marius Jost personally. In the following text you can learn more about remarkable and intellectually gifted children and the support that we offer for them.
Is my child gifted?
This question is usually difficult to answer. Diese Frage kann normalerweise nicht sofort beantwortet werden. In a normal case, a gifted child first accustoms himself or herself to the environment and so they evade the fact of their special gifts. Whether a child is gifted should be determined by the best and most qualified professionals. Usually it can be determined by a psychological psychotherepist or a qualified school psychologist, whether a child is actually gifted. If a child already has an IQ over 130 (using the German IQ scale), it is appears to be clear that we can handle that case.We also support children who have a good or an average IQ but who exhibit particularly strong abilities or clear signs of being inadequately challenged e.g. very good grades at school
Being gifted, having particularly strong talents or at the least being under-challenged is usually not easy for the life of a child. If a child of 2 1/2 years is already strong at verbal communication or learns very early to write, parents and educators are often thrown a little off guard. In kindergarten or at school children are often labeled as having peculiar behavior.
We would like to touch on this subject because we hold a critical position towards intelligence testing. The validity of such tests have been shown through scientific studies but higher IQs can also be achieved by the same test taker through simple practice.
