Book Synopsis

Are you satisfied that your children's current educational environment is bringing out their best potential?

In a world where traditional education systems make little or no accommodation for individual learning styles (such as auditory or visual learning), and they're failing to teach even the basics, it's time for parents to take charge of their children's education.

In Reclaiming Education, parents are equipped with practical and immediately useful tools to work in partnership with their children to identify and develop their learning styles and strengths. If you want to help learners build the kind of confidence that inspires lifelong learning, get them involved in the solutions for their own success.

In this book, both parents and children can learn how to

• Identify learning style strengths
• Develop strategies for adapting to less than ideal circumstances
• Design an effective study space environment that's tailored to your child's needs
• Motivate even the most resistant learners

A great faith-based parenting resource for anyone who feels like the traditional education system has failed their children, and for anyone interested in homeschooling or simply helping their children to succeed in any type of school setting.

Say goodbye to a one-size-fits-all education and unlock your child's full learning potential.

From the Back Cover

Take control of your children's education.

The simple, painful fact is that many public schools in the United States are doing a poor job of teaching the basics of reading, writing, math, and science. Instead, they're teaching kids--as early as in kindergarten--gender ideology, an anti-Christian worldview, and how to hide things from their parents.

It's time to seriously reconsider where and how your children are being educated.

But even as you ponder that, there are things you can do to help your kids become confident, lifelong learners in any academic setting. This starts by identifying their learning styles--how they best absorb information and remember what they've learned. It also includes things like what physical environment is most conducive to their studying well, staying organized, and doing homework.

In Reclaiming Education, learning-styles expert Cynthia Ulrich Tobias and homeschool pro Mary Jo Dean (cofounder of Great Homeschool Conventions) show you how to identify all these things about your children--and how to motivate them to learn as well. They also offer assurance that if you choose to homeschool, you can succeed.

Taking control of your kids' education has never been more important. Knowing what to do with that control is likewise vital to their success as learners. Reclaiming Education will clearly show you how to do both.
