A follow-up to the original 1989 best-selling Rick Lavoie video, How Difficult Can This Be? The F.A.T. City Workshop, this program underscores the frustration, anxiety and tension (F.A.T.) children with learning disabilities experience.

Lavoie's 70-minute discussion is filled with powerful insights and practical strategies on coaching and teaching, building self esteem, creating individualized education plans, imparting accountability, home schooling, parental responsibility and much more.

Beyond F.A.T. City, A Look Back, A Look Ahead has been segmented to facilitate viewer discussion during teacher in-service meetings and to serve as a gateway to discussion during parent/teacher presentations and educational workshops. The companion Viewer's Guide helps discussion leaders stimulate dialogue through a series of thought-provoking questions and commentary.
