Podcast Episode 6: Lessons Learned About Learning

Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast!  Today we’re excited to be discussing one of our very favorite topics – Learning! I know you’re shocked that this is a topic we find interesting…but we do. Especially right now, when Alison is living in Mexico trying to learn Spanish and Lee is watching her one-year-old son learn new stuff every day.

We’re pretty convinced that the lessons from learning a language, or learning to walk, apply equally to learning in law school!

Here’s what’s discussed in this episode:

• How do children approach learning, and what can we learn from them?
• What’s it like learning another language, and how do these lessons apply to law school?
• Why you need to do the things that make you uncomfortable to really learn effectively
• Why being smart isn’t enough (Hint: You still have to work hard)
• What we can all learn from Brene Brown about learning (love her!)
• Practical ways to develop your learning resilience

Enjoy!
