Greetings from Victoria & Mariaemma!
Well, in just a few hours we will be on a plane to
Michigan to
visit Landmark Academy in Port Huron for 10 days!
We are looking forward to seeing again the dedicated
staff members that
have already come to Ventura for Levels 1 & 2
LearningSuccess Coach Certification.
And we are very excited to meet the rest of the 60+
staff
and the parents of the school, as we spend our days
there
conducting Level 1 and 3 training, and doing
workshops and
seminars.
We will tell you all about our trip in next month's
newsletter...

LearningSuccess Laws
What are LearningSuccess Laws? They are principles
that we have come to believe are essential for
learning success, life success, and all other
aspects of success. They are short and simple:
Learning doesnt have to hurt!
Success leads to more success!
Coaching brings out the Star!
This month we will look at the first Law:
Learning doesn't have to hurt!
Why do we think that learning has to hurt anyway?
The more
enjoyable something is the better we will learn
it.
This goes for adults as well as kids.
Victor Frankl, holocause survivor and author of
Man's Search
for Meaning, gives this advice: Most of us spend
most of our
time (and force students to spend most of their
time) in
activities that are Hard to Learn and Hard to Do.
Yet what
builds confidence and promotes success is spending
most of
our time in Easy to Learn and Easy to Do.
In The Power of Focus, authors Hansen,
Canfield, and
Hewitt
put it this way:
..."Often, children are told to focus on their
weaker subjects
and not spend so much time on the ones they do well
in...
Wrong!...This doesn't give you a competitive edge in
the
marketplace or position you to be wealthy. It just
keep you
average. In fact, it's an absolute insult to your
integrity to
major in minor things."
When you know your child's learning style, you can
coach
that child to learn in ways that work best for
him/her...in
ways that feel good, give a sense of accomplishment,
and
build confidence.
The same goes for you and the other adults in your
life. If
you know your learning style and make use of it,
everything
goes better: your relationships, your job, your
life!
To help you do this we developed A Self-Portrait
Learning
Style Profile. It is included in our book,
Discover
Your Child's
Learning Style, and we also have an online version
for those
of you who are NOT print learners, don't want to
read a book
and want automatically scored results and
recommendations!
Click on either of these items in the left column to
order
now!
This month keep in mind the first
LearningSuccess Law:
Learning
doesn't have to hurt, and see what happens. You
could
change your life or the life of a child!

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 oldthat 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 childs or
students 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 childs or students
LearningSuccess Coach!
Awesome weekend - you blended the best of the best
in educational techniques and communication skills.
It's a clear path toward successful, compassionate
and child-centered education all rolled into one.
Rachelle Wafer, teacher, Laurel Springs
School
I feel so enriched by my three days with you both!
Sally Van Der Kar, mom and teacher
Victoria and Mariaemma are amazing! Every school,
parent and person who works with kids should use
their book and assessments.
Suzanne Lopez, therapist
I received some great teaching techniques but, more
importantly, I realized that learning and evaluation
don't have to pit one student against another.
Everyone can succeed without diminishing the other
people with whom they learn.
Heather Havens, Assessment Coordinator
I have already learned so many valuable things that
I plan to use immediately. I can't wait for the next
session!! I have a very strong feeling that this is
going to open up a whole new career path for me, one
that I never would have considered before. Thank you
for your ideas, your presentations, your encouraging
words and your warmth.
Helene McCabe, public school mom
