      If you are interpreted read Alex & Me by Irene Pepperburg! They are using her method. As other Gray's joined the Stanford Lab Alex would correct the younger ones. When he did Not want to train he would give wrong answers, turn his back, just show No. When new Student's Interned, Alex would demand every thing he knew how to ask for putting the kids through their paces to see what they knew and if he could make them do stuff. He's also test to see if they would give extra treats.
      I have 2 Grays myself and they are 15 & 14. Mindblowingly smart and I am a huge fan here knowing students in their area are studying this. It is such important work and it is Way understudied, so many people still think Parrots only mimic. It will take this Generation to prove to the Scientific Community definitively what Gray's can do, how they feel and think.

    Well done, birds and humans! As a descendant of a long line of teachers, who kept going after last bell, tutoring at home while rearing their own children, and a former special ed paraprofessional myself, I enjoyed watching you discuss and evolve your teaching style. One thing we really paid attention to before each school year was minimizing distractions as best we could to enhance focus. In my autism classroom, the students were constantly moving, much like your bird kids. I know you're dealing with a different species, but still, very nicely done. 💖☮🙏

    Have you tried calling the cloth rag, ‘fabric’?
    It’s a word that is very different to the word sock.
    I notice that the word cloth is quite like the word sock.
    Fabric is two syllables and ends in a c, which Apollo likes to say!
    Then you can say, this is a sock - it’s made of fabric. This is a shirt - it’s made of fabric, etc. ❤

    I love your training method, we have been trying this with Tilda, (dad even touches with mouth before giving answer) although she doesn't show a lot of interest at the time, she certainly has been learning her colours, we find it very hard because she doesn't like talking infront of dad (he spends most time with Tilda) soon as dad leaves her alone she resites most of what dad was trying teach Tilda, and only really mimics dad, it's dad that feeds Tilda (she loves him feeding her by hand ie fruit and vegetables) she's very friendly with dad, steps up every time, plays with him (on her terms 🤭) and all that just never speaks while dad is around 🤭 Dad is the only male Tilda likes but she does like all females and children, again I love your training method watching you and Apollo is just a joy ❤ he's just so adorable
