  We broke our new series on learning Russian down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
  This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Russian.  
  In Unit 1 you will hear Russian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
  Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Russian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Russian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Russian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Russian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

  This book is about understanding how much neurodivergence and masking has unconsciously shaped so many people without them realising. For generations we have not recognised that many people who are highly adapted to a neurotypical world haven't been acknowledged or supported, especially women and girls. It explores the experience of attention divergent and highly sensitive people (often referred to as ADD or ADHD), Autistic people (often referred to as ASD) and people who are both (Dualies), in a non- pathologizing way. It challenges the current use of pathologizing language and explores the intersection of all the other shaping influences on how we make sense of this identity, including trauma, family of origin and overlaps between different types of neurodivergence. It explores the likely evolutionary components of how humans have developed different kinds of brains and attributes and makes suggestions for developing a more inclusive and validating picture of neurodiversity in schools, the workplace, families and friendship groups. Helen draws on her own and her partner's experiences of being neurodivergent, as well as drawing from stories of her friends, family and clients to develop a greater understanding of why it is important to embrace this identity if it applies to you. Helen is a psychologist who has worked with people for forty years. She describes how important it is to realise how masking neurodivergence stops people from realising their full potential, and where embracing it helps personal growth and a positive identity.

  "The Absorbent Mind" by Dr. Maria Montessori, published in 1949, explores the natural development of children and outlines Montessori's innovative educational philosophy. The book introduces the concept of the "absorbent mind," highlighting young children's innate ability to effortlessly absorb information from their surroundings.In the first part, covering birth to six years, Montessori identifies distinct developmental stages. The absorbent mind operates during this period, fostering spontaneous exploration, imitation, and a natural inclination to acquire knowledge without conscious effort.The second part focuses on the practical application of Montessori's observations in education. She advocates for a prepared environment that caters to the child's developmental needs, encouraging independence and self-directed learning. Montessori redefines the teacher's role as a guide, facilitating exploration rather than dictating learning.Montessori's holistic approach encompasses physical, intellectual, emotional, and social development. Movement, sensory experiences, and hands-on learning are essential components for creating a comprehensive educational experience."The Absorbent Mind" has significantly influenced education, shaping the Montessori method globally. Principles like a prepared environment, teacher as a guide, and recognition of sensitive periods for learning have become integral to Montessori education.In conclusion, "The Absorbent Mind" remains a cornerstone in educational literature. Montessori's insights prompt reflection on learning, the importance of nurturing innate curiosity, and the impact of a thoughtfully designed educational environment. The book serves as a timeless resource for those interested in holistic child development and progressive educational practices.

  Chezare A. Warren chronicles the transition of a cohort of young Black males from Urban Prep Charter Academy for Young Men to their early experiences in higher education. A rich and closely observed account of a mission-driven school and its students, Urban Preparation makes a significant contribution to our understanding of how young males of color can best be served in schools throughout the United States today. 
   
   
    
  A founding teacher at Urban Prep, Warren offers a detailed exploration of what this single-sex public high school on the South Side of Chicago has managed to accomplish amid profoundly challenging circumstances. He provides a comprehensive portrait of the school—its leaders, teachers, and professional staff; its students; and the community that the school aims to serve—and highlights how preparation for higher education is central to its mission. 
   
   
    
  Warren focuses on three main goals: to describe Urban Prep's plans and efforts to prepare young Black males for college; to understand how race, community, poverty, and the school contributed, in complex and interrelated ways, to the academic goals of these students; and to offer a wide-ranging set of conclusions about the school environments and conditions that might help young Black males throughout the country succeed in high school and college.

  Me Power redefines empowerment, encouraging us to tap into our limitless flow of possibility while connecting with others.
