Tara’s Take - Parenting, Education & Life With Kids
Kids & Family:Parenting
This is a conversation every parent worried about their child's success needs to listen to.
Amy Yeung, a high school guidance counsellor, and I have been working with students and parents for over 20 years each. We have seen a lot in that time and want to share some thoughts about success with you. We are also parents of elementary and middle school children so understand the pressure of raising children in a world that is rapidly changing.
Topics we cover:
1) How academic focus and pressure in the early years translates to high school
2) What do report cards really mean & when do they matter
3) How does profession-based and post-secondary goal setting affect student success and outcomes
4) The world is changing, how can you find out what types of jobs might suit your child
