We are all geniuses, but most of us don’t get the chance to realize it. This video is about the many constraints imposed on our learning from birth to adulthood, with a focus on school. There are no under- and over-achievers. If we could educate kids better, we could unlock their potential, providing them with skills for life. We are all potential geniuses; we just don’t all have the opportunity.
