Connie’s quote today is by – Paulo Cohelho:

“Teaching is only demonstrating that it is possible.Learning is making it possible for yourself.”

Now more than ever, education has become the gateway to success.It broadens not only our knowledge but also HOW we think.Over the last several decades, the educational process has gone through its own metamorphosis changing from how we teach, to how we measure student growth, and learning.

With that said, we are not teaching our kids how to cope, teenage suicide is at an all time high, and parents and teachers alike, are at a loss as to how to reach young students and empower them to love learning so they can become life long learners, discoverers and excited about new ideas.

So why is education about testing results and not about the heart of a child’s learning?

Today your host, Connie Whitman, speak with Natalie Ledwell.  Natalie is a bestselling author, host of The Inspiration Show, co-host of the cable TV show WAKE UP, and founder of Mind Movies, the hugely successful and revolutionary online Personal Development Company that has reached over 5.8 million people worldwide.I am one of those 5.8 million!
