5 ⭐️
This book is jam packed full of thought provoking research and tips on how to foster a learning-rich environment for your children. I love the research recaps at the end of each section, and the action item list which will make executing this into action more digestible.
“On average, we forget about 42% of what we hear within 20 minutes, and more than half of memory loss occurs within just one hour!”
🧠 This book covers topics like: Emotional support, feedback, multi-tasking, understanding the relevancy of what they are learning, how to retain information, automaticity, tapping into intrinsic interests, setting SMART goals (includes a sheet to build that out), time management, different types of recall, how to connect new information with previous knowledge, managing test anxiety, building problem solving skills, fostering creativity, encouraging self reflection and much more!
👩🏻🏫 While I already practice many of these approaches, this book helps me understand the importance on a much deeper level, and reinforces some of the things I’ve been implementing as well as gives me a much bigger and better vision of how to approach it going forward, especially as I plan to home school.
Thanks to NetGalley, Digital Ventures, Dr. Wallace Panlilio II & Dr. Artyom Zinchenko for providing me with a complimentary ARC to review!

Every parent desires to see his/her child excel in academics. However, each child has unique learning styles and individual challenges. In “Wisest Learners (Parent Edition): Unlock the Secrets to Your Child’s Academic Success,” parents gain valuable insights into effective parental strategies, foundational principles, and learning management techniques to support their child’s educational journey. This insightful book, authored by the esteemed Doctors Wallace Panlilio II and Artyom Zinchenko, commences with the enlightening Parable of the Blind Men and the Elephant, symbolizing the constraints of individual perspectives, and underscoring the continuous process of learning and understanding. The authors’ expertise and credibility are evident in their skillful crafting of this compelling resource, which guides and empowers parents, giving them the tools and knowledge to nurture their children’s academic growth.
In the context of child development, a learning tree diagram has been included to serve as a powerful symbol representing strength and longevity. The diagram is utilized to categorize discussions into three main components: the Parental Engagement Cycle (depicted as the roots), the Foundation (the trunk), and Management (the branches). This approach is strategically designed to provide a framework for parents, offering guidance to motivate their children efficiently. Furthermore, the significant contributions of Dr. Panlilio and Dr. Zinchenko are highlighted, emphasizing the importance of fostering autonomy in children. This approach encourages children to consider the consequences and trade-offs of their decisions, ultimately facilitating the development of sound judgment and decision-making skills.
At the conclusion of each chapter, you will find comprehensive action plans and detailed research recaps. These valuable tools are designed to facilitate easy access to, and clarification of the information presented in the chapter. The research recaps are especially beneficial for aiding participants in focusing on the most critical information, while the action plans are intended to assist in addressing questions, fostering discussions, and resolving any concerns that may arise throughout the reading journey.
“Wisest Learners (Parent Edition)” is a thought-provoking and comprehensive guide designed for parents of children of all ages. It emphasizes the universal challenges children encounter as they grow. It provides invaluable insights into how parents can best support them—a highly recommended read for every parent seeking to enhance their parenting skills.
I wholeheartedly endorse this book and assert that it merits inclusion in school libraries and counselors’ offices. Its wealth of knowledge renders it valuable for all individuals with children, representing an opportunity for learning and personal development.

To me, the most enjoyable part of having children was teaching them things! My own offspring were rarely allowed screen time, were given lots of books and art supplies, and also helped me out with household chores. They all did well in school, got college scholarships, and are successful adults with good jobs and their own health insurance! My parents were also educators, so I just did the sorts of things I had been taught at home. Parents who don't have a background in education will find Wisest Learners an interesting and helpful book to apply to rearing academically minded children.
I'm not sure how many secrets this unlocks, but the book does break down the approaches to life skills that parents should consider. Basically, children need to have intrinsic motivation to learn rather than all of the Jolly Ranchers, tickets, and participation awards that are rampant as "carrots" today. It helps for them to have a clear direction of where they are headed, and how acquired skills can be not only used in future emergencies, but how the act of learning those skills makes them more flexible and knowledgeable adults.
There are some very good details about both time management and space management that many of my students would benefit from. Having routines, enough rest, and time for reflection are critical. Because there were no smart phones when my children were in school, they weren't tired like many kids I see complaining today, and there was plenty of time for them to just sit and think thoughts instead of watching YouTube videos or playing games on their phones. Fiften years ago, students in study hall would do homework, read, and then draw or write notes, all of which are productive ways to spend time. I've often thought that my children should have had more dedicated space to do homework; we mainly did it at the kitchen table. It worked out well, but now I personally would like to have a work space with a comfortable chair and a window looking out onto a pleasant outdoor scene!
I especially liked the information about encouraging students to ask for help and to learn to collaborate. Of course, since it's 2024, there is also a chapter about dealing with anxiety, which is probably less of a concern for children who have been solving problems and learning to amuse themselves for their whole lives.
This does veer into the style of college textbooks; S.M.A.R.T. goals are mentioned, and there's even talk of metacognition. I've taken several college courses recently to renew my certification, and this seemed very similar to other ones I've seen, especially Hammond's Culturally Responsive Teaching and the Brain, which is geared towards educators. There doesn't seem to be a teacher edition of Wisest Learners, but this would be an excellent book for teachers to read, especially if they have children of their own.

Proactive parenting
As both educators and parents, authors Wallace Panlilio and Artyom Zinchenko draw from extensive expertise in crafting Wisest Learners’ comprehensive parental guidebook. Their overarching ethos champions nurturing children’s innate curiosity to unlock lifelong academic success. Augmenting theoretical understanding of cognitive development with practical strategic advice, they compellingly break down intentional parenting techniques. From fostering self-discovery to strategizing optimal learning environments, their actionable tools promise resonance for parents navigating varied contexts. While the principles tread well-worn ground, the diverse real-world examples and integration of classic strategies with current research enhance accessibility. By spotlighting extreme learners from Edison to Curry, they underscore every child’s dormant potential. While further emphasizing the societal value of education risks unnecessary pressure, generally the authors radiate enthusiasm and compassion. For parents seeking to actively cultivate brilliant young minds, Wisest Learners provides thoughtful mentoring rooted in both science and lived wisdom.
