| "TAGteach
is wonderful for children. They learn so much faster, they are
spared the emotional downside of endless corrections, they
learn empathy and partnership as they tag each other, and
learning through reinforcement is physiologically an elating,
joyful experience. What a great way to learn" |

Teaching is the most world-changing application I have ever
seen. Bar none. The kids who are being tagged are learning to
learn -- and learning to teach -- in a purely reinforcing
manner. No nagging. No yelling. Focus. Motivation. Fun." |

you know where it (Tag point) is. Now the coaches aren't yelling at you all
the time. You can just know where it is and you'll never forget it.

then you fall off.
