Beyond Grades
Supporting kids' performance, behavior, &
social/emotional health in school
Two chances to attend:
School Has So Many Challenges!
Fact #1: A million parts of a child's growth are wrapped up in going to school.
Think about everything on a student's plate: classwork, sitting still, cooperating with others, following rules, listening, communicating, and a rollercoaster of emotions...
No wonder kids flounder at times!
Fact #2: A million parts of PARENTS' growth are wrapped up in sending kids to school too.
'Beyond Grades' is about that growth, and tapping into our power. Learn how to support your child in this chapter of their life.
Grades are the tip of the iceberg.
As a parent coach, I help my clients overcome school challenges all the time, and I'll let you in on a secret: I almost never ask about kids' grades, for two reasons:
First, there are a ton of things that are more important than grades. Is your child building positive relationships? Is your child struggling with their behavior, friendships, stress from schoolwork, or understanding the materials? Heck, even how smoothly your kiddo can get ready and out the door to school is more important than their grades!
Second, all of these other things need to fall into place before grades will change.
Address what's beneath school struggles.
Let's addresss what's REALLY important
This workshop will walk you through how to affect real change in the areas that truly matter:
- Performance (completing assignments, independent work, life skills like time management and getting ready for the day)
- Behavior (respect, following rules, paying attention)
- Social dynamics (bullying, frenemies, social anxiety)
- Emotional health (stress, self concept, anxiety)
You'll walk away with real tools to teach your child how to navigate the hard stuff about school for themselves.
In this Workshop You'll Learn:
- How to step back so your kid can step up!
- Our biggest mistakes that get in our kids way!
- What to do about misbehavior in school
- Tips for handling bullies, frenemies and 'mean kids'
- How to help kids through stress and low confidence
- Getting your child to do homework without a fight
-
Keys to a smooth, on-time departure to school
What People Are Saying
"I came into this work knowing I'm a good mom, but there were clearly a lot of adjustments that were needed. Now, there is hardly any yelling in our home, and no conflict. There's a lot less lecturing and a lot more communicating. And there's a lot more hugging and affection that the kids initiate on their own!" - Jen
"Everything with Ann is just so actionable, versus just enhancing my own knowledge base." - Johnna
"I am so much better now at patience and peace with myself and with the kids. I would find that lost my patience quite easily with the kids and especially with repeated bad behaviors. Now I can approach the situation in a much more calm, neutral way." - Johnna
Hi, I'm Ann!
I'm a mother of 4, parent coach and still sane, believe it or not!
When I became a mom, I had no clue about parenting. I found myself losing my temper with kids who were out of control and driving me nuts! After realizing I did NOT want life of anger, misbehavior & chaos, I turned myself and my family around in a big way. Now I help other moms do the same, and it's the best job ever!
My business is based on the true and tricky fact that we are parents and individuals all at once. The more we live and parent in alignment with our true selves, the better family dynamics we have and the happier we are. That's what my work is about and it's what I bring to my clients every day.
