The Right Problem
Solve the Right Problem — with the Lead Out Method.
Build what a student needs inside first — wellness, hope, passion, perseverance — and the learning follows. Two legendary educators showed how.
What the Lead Out Method does
To educate comes from the Latin educere — “to lead out.” Not to push facts in, but to lead out what a student already carries: the will to be well, to hope, to care, to persevere.
That is the Right Problem. Solve it first — build Column 1 — and Column 2, the reading, writing, and math, becomes possible.
Eva Fugitt
Used psychology to exercise children’s ability to self-direct their own lives — and watched behaviour and learning turn around.
Marva Collins
Took students others had given up on and led them to believe in themselves first — then to read, write, and reason far beyond their grade.
