by Cornelius N. Grove (Author)

Grove asks not that we copy East Asian teaching approaches, but that we use them as a mirror to gain insights into typically American approaches and their underlying values, which are handicapping our children's learning.

Author Biography

Cornelius N. Grove's mission has been to explain to Americans the historical and cultural reasons for their children's comparatively mediocre performance in schools; his books The Aptitude Myth (2013) and The Drive to Learn (2017) are now followed by A Mirror for Americans. With a doctorate in education from Columbia University, he is the author of entries on pedagogy across cultures in two new encyclopedias, and founder of the intercultural consulting firm Grovewell LLC.
