Relieving pressure on students and parents
Failure is a good place to start.
That may be the last thing you want to hear, as you watch your child slipping further and further behind. Maybe this sounds familiar?
“I hate school.”
“My teachers hate me.”
“I don’t feel like doing anything.”
“I don’t even know where to start.”
“I don’t have time for homework.”
“I’m a failure.”
“Whatever.”
I’ve been working with students for more than 40 years, and I promise – this is exactly where we can, and should, begin this journey…. together. Change is hard, and when your children are involved, it can be gut-wrenching. But if you’re here, and you’re reading this, you know change is inevitable. Together, we can help your child thrive in school.
“Helping your child discover how he or she learns is the most exciting thing a parent can do for a child.”

Resources for Parents
How does your child learn best? Does she touch it? Hear it? Work it? Make it? Talk it? Build it? Sing it? Act it? See it? Draw it?
I use dozens of resources in my work. I’ve also made available a collection of helpful forms and charts right here!

I wish I could invite you all to share a cup of coffee and conversation in my living room! While that isn’t possible, I would love to answer your questions about parenting for school success.
