Dr. Carol Dweck, a psychology professor at Stanford University, points out in her book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, that personal intelligence and ability are not immutable, they can be acquired and improved through efforts. We believe that children grow much like plants, have different characteristics, and have varying flowering periods. This is why we respect children’s growth rhythm while patiently nurturing their blossoming. A growth mindset guides how we will treat children's mistakes, as not yet, but soon to be. We encourage children to accept mistakes, learn from them, and continually persevere when faced with new challenges.
