Greetings from Victoria & Mariaemma!
November has been another busy month. Besides
conducting
workshops and consultations at our office in
Ventura, we
headed back to Port Huron, Michigan to spend 8 more
days
with the dedicated staff of Landmark Academy.
Landmark Academy is participating in the SchoolSuccess
Continuous Improvement Process as all staff strive
to ensure
LearningSuccess for every single child and the
school works
on earning the LearningSuccess School designation.
It was a little chilly in Michigan, and we knew that
the
temperatures in
Southern California were soaring into the 90s during
those 10
days! But we were warmed by the welcome and
hospitality extended to us.
If you are lucky enough to live in Port Huron, and
are looking
for a K-8 school that honors your children's
learning styles,
visit
www.landmarkacademy.net for more information
or call 810-982-7210.
For information on becoming a LearningSuccess School
call
805-648-1739 or email us at
info@learningsuccesscoach.com
We wish you all a very happy & relaxing Thanksgiving
weekend !

Appreciating Learning Styles
This time of year is a great time to reflect on all
the things
we are grateful for. How about starting with the
people in our
lives? A great family activity is to have everyone
make lists
of the qualities they love about each member of the
family.
Each person can have the option of:
• writing down the lists (using paper, file cards,
journal or
other format
• recording themselves (audio or video)
• drawing or using cut out pictures or stickers (making
posters,
scrapbooks, paintings)
These also make great gifts! In fact, in place of
one “regular”
gift, how about reflecting on each of your children and
making a colorful card for each of them that says:
What delights you about this particular child
What this child brings to the family that is unique
What it is about this child that you are most
grateful for
What it is about this child that fascinates you the
most
What it is about this child that you miss when
you're not with
him/her
Our guess is that this simple gift will be the one
that they will
remember
ten years from now!
The kids can make similar cards for parents, siblings,
friends, teachers, etc.
Adults can make these cards for their adult family
members,
friends, and co-workers.
Let the people you love and care about know that you
appreciate their unique learning styles!

Style at

Victoria's New Book is finally here!
We are happy to announce the publication of the book
that Victoria has been working on with Sura Hart for
over a year—Respectful Parents, Respectful Kids: 7
Keys to Turn Family Conflict Into Co-operation.
At the core of our work on learning styles is the
fact that as a parent you may know many wonderful
things about how your child learns and what
environment and materials work best, however, the
truth is that how you communicate what you know
makes a big difference in whether it is received or
not. If you have lots of practice in using
criticism, blame, threats, rewards, and punishments
as your primary means of communication, your chances
of being able to share your learning style knowledge
with your child are slim.
With effective, connecting communication skills in
place you will not only be able to share the
learning style information you have gathered, you
will be able to build upon it daily to ensure
success in your child’s learning and life. And—by
modeling effective ways to communicate, your
children learn how to communicate effectively with
you, other family members, friends, and
classmates.
To find out more about this long-awaited book,
please go to www.k-hcommunication.com
Carla & Dani Adivi, parents of 3 boys:
We wish that we had the tools that we learned in
this book when we first became parents 14 years ago.
It would make our lives a lot easier now. This
book can give parents the confidence to be the kind
of parents that they always wanted to be:
understanding, compassionate, respectful and fun.
They can gain the confidence, language and skills
that will create harmony & respect in their homes
and have a sense of peace in their
hearts.

LearningSuccess Coach training: New Level 1 Class!
Register now for discount!
We have just scheduled another Level 1 class for
March since
our February class is already full!
The dates are: March 14-16, 2007
We have had many calls from disappointed people who
wanted to register for the February Level 1 class,
asking
when the next class would be. So if you have been
wanting to
come to this training, please register now and don't
be left
out. We expect that this class will also fill up
quickly.
Register
now and get $30 off the regular price!
Parents, do you want less struggling over homework
and school issues and more family harmony?
Homeschoolers, do you want peace of mind knowing you
are giving your kids what they need to learn and
thrive?
Teachers, do you want to go beyond “no child left
behind” to true learning success for ALL of your
students?
Did you know that most kids are not ready
developmentally to read or write until they
are 8 or 9 years old—that the muscles of their eyes
are not ready to track print, and that their wrists
and hands are not ready for pencils?
Did you know that at least 60% of the population are
picture and hands-on learners?
Did you know that people who are not print learners
will never learn to spell by writing words over and
over again?
You will learn how to work with your child’s or
student’s natural gifts and dispositions, rather
than applying dysfunctional labels such as A.D.D.,
Dyslexic, Hyperactive, Learning Disabled, or even
average.
Come find out how to be your child’s or student’s
LearningSuccess Coach!
