EDUCATORS

Teaching Our Youth understands the importance of the partnership between parents and teachers for our student’s academic success. If you have more than one child, you know how different each child can be: their behaviors, interests, communication and learning style. Parenting is not a one size fits all philosophy. By helping parents understand themselves, and the personalities of their children, they can better adapt their parenting style to meet the internal/emotional needs of their children, to reduce conflict and develop better relationships and increase academic performance.

Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great teacher.”

Japanese Proverb
