This course is for you if you:
- Feel frustrated by the school's inability to recognize your child's potential and interests.
- Are upset that the classroom pace doesn't match your child's learning style.
- Are concerned about outdated textbook-based learning that fails to keep up with the changing world.
- Are worried about the lack of emotional and social support your child receives in their learning environment.
- Wonder what your child needs to learn for the future and what is just 'fluff'.
- Find it challenging to grasp concepts like project-based learning and skill-based curricula.
- Struggle with limited time, resources, and energy to provide your child with meaningful learning experiences.
- Want to engage in your child's play and interests actively but don't know how.
- Wish your child to become a self-directed learner, confident in voicing opinions and making decisions.
- Argue with others about the limitations of traditional schools but aren't sure how to make a change.
Drawing upon our decade-long experience of challenging the education system, I have invaluable insights into what truly happens behind the four walls of a school. I will equip you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to unlock your child's potential.
Outcome:
Parenting is already hard enough, and the added pressure of supporting our child's academic needs can be overwhelming, especially when competing with other priorities like building a connection, playing with our children, earning a living, and taking care of ourselves.
By the end of the course, I hope you will feel lighter, validated, and more oriented towards learning priorities that truly matter during the developing years of your child's life.
