There are no uninteresting people in the world. That is how a famous Russian poet put it. According to some psychologists, untalented is also extremely small. To reveal the natural abilities of a person, you need to notice them in time. The teacher and writer Vadim Levin speaks about this in his books.
Starting conditions
Each adequate person has children's habits and skills that are preserved throughout life. None of the analysts and experts argues with this message. Hot discussions unfold when it comes to specific ways of educating the younger generation. Vadim Aleksandrovich Levin formed his own technique, which allows you to start the mechanism of creative thinking in a child. To communicate with the kids, he even created a special children's language. It is no secret that children and adults communicate in different languages.
The future candidate of pedagogical sciences was born on November 19, 1933 in an intelligent family. Parents lived in the city of Kharkov. My father worked at a tractor factory. Mother taught engineering graphics at the local Polytechnic Institute. Vadim only graduated from the first class when the war began. Father went to the front, and the boy and his mother were evacuated to the famous city of Tashkent. They managed to return only two years later, when their hometown was liberated from the Nazis. After graduating from school, Levin decided to get a technical education.
Professional activity
Having studied at the Polytechnic Institute, Vadim realized that he was not at all interested in machines and mechanisms. From that moment he began to work at school and study in absentia at the philological faculty of Kharkov University. Levin not only taught literature to his students, and tried to activate their imaginative thinking abilities. To this end, he began to study the experience of colleagues and specialists from related fields of knowledge. Vadim Alexandrovich knew from his own experience how easily a foreign language is mastered in childhood. Children can communicate with each other in three or more "alien" languages.
Creativity of the school teacher brought decent results. For almost two decades Levin taught classes in a children's literary studio. He not only instilled a taste for reading and writing, but also created works for children. Poems for children were published in the collections Walk with a Daughter, Praise for Kittens, and Where the Circus Left. In the mid-70s, Vadim Alexandrovich was invited to the All-Union Television as a leading program for children, "Early in the Morning."
