Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 326: Educator Sam Young on Reimagining Socializing for Twice-Exceptional Students · 11 Apr 2023 podcast

I went to the Bridges Graduate School, had two really cool opportunities to do some Fulbright scholarships looking at education in China, Mongolia, and France.

And then during the pandemic, I decided I was going to take my...

progressive strengths-based education and take it to the world.

And I founded a program called Young Scholars Academy, which is a enrichment program for twice exceptional neurodivergent and gifted students to take interest-based and passion-based classes.

I think a lot of people don't realize that.

And I didn't realize this.

So of course, yes, this is my last name, Ray Young.

And I thought, oh, Young Scholars Academy is this perfect name.

I created the LLC, started the business.

And then I went online.

And of course, Davidson has Young Scholars Program.

And it's like this massive, reputable program.

And my first couple emails that I'm getting from new clients are, hey, are you connected?

And I was like, I didn't even know that was a thing.

In hindsight, maybe it wasn't the move.

But I thought it was so cute with my name.

So I did it.

Yeah, absolutely.

The idea behind Young Scholars Academy is really saving education through strengths-based and interest-based learning.

So, a lot of students like my younger self are steeped in that space of going to school, being told where they're struggling, or just seeing where they're struggling.
