    [First-Hand Experiences Ep. 1] School Pressure and What We Can Do About It with Carli Saber

    Today’s conversation is with Carli Saber. Early in her career, Carli was a Montessori teacher. During her time in the classroom she observed the clear abilities of her children as well as the limiting beliefs holding them back. Carli now works as a PSYCH-K Facilitator, helping parents and children to shift stress, anxiety, limiting beliefs, and lack of confidence due to learning difficulties to help clear the path to their full potential. This conversation invites all of us to think deeply about how school-related anxiety can develop at an early age and persist into adulthood and what we can do to support the learners in our lives, including ourselves.

    [School Stress 101 Ep. 6] Getting the Right Kind of Academic Help for Your Child

    Asking for academic help for your child can be daunting because a) it can be intimidating to talk with someone you don’t know about your child’s struggles b) you don’t know how your child is going to feel about it and c) you know once you get an actual person involved, the financial investment goes up and the idea of throwing your money away on something that doesn’t work is exhausting. Here are three characteristics to be on the lookout for to make sure that any investment you make in support for your child will be totally worth it, whether you’re asking for help from an academic coaching practice like School Without Suffering, an academic support center at your child’s school, or another resource entirely.
