Help! My Child Hates School: An Awakened Parent's Guide to Action Tapa blanda - 2018

Mara Linaberger's essential belief is that each of us has chosen to be here on the planet at this moment in time for a specific reason--that we're all here on a personal mission of growth and development that we chose for ourselves prior to our birth. She believes that figuring out what it is that we love, what we're good at, and why we've chosen to be here now, is the main reason to engage in deep and individualized learning throughout a lifetime. Mara believes that many of today's educational practices slow down or stifle those outcomes for many children. As a result, she's become a passionate champion for teachers' utilization of new methods to motivate learning, and help students develop to their highest potential.

Mara is a life-long educator, author, musician, and artist, having spent 25 years in service as a public-school educator, teacher trainer, and administrator. Earning a Master of Arts in Teaching in elementary education, and then an educational doctorate in Instructional Technology, Mara also holds a Superintendent's Letter of Eligibility in the state of Pennsylvania.

Having spent most of her professional career in public school systems, Mara recently sensed it was time to change direction. Launching Mindful Technology Consultants in 2013, she now crafts individualized training and support services for small businesses, school districts, and larger educational organizations. Focusing on the simplified and intentional use of technology, she helps her clients to deconstruct complex language and ideas to achieve harmony, make rich connections between like-minded entrepreneurs, and bring back a love for creativity and learning.

Mara currently maintains a small apartment in her hometown that her friends jokingly refer to as "the Pittsburgh hotel room." She travels extensively, tackling unique educational projects and supporting awakened parents and kids in transforming their experiences with education and school. Her latest passion is serving communities ready to design and build a micro-school, transforming thought into reality!
