Shifting the Perspective on Academic Support

  • Summary

In this game-changing episode, 35-year education veteran Gretchen Kalkowski joins hosts Christopher and Deb to share why this subtle shift in thinking could transform your family's approach to learning. From a four-year-old's basketball adventures to a high schooler's calculus complaints, discover how letting go of the "perfect grade" chase can actually lead to better learning (and happier kids!). Whether you're wrestling with report cards or trying to build confidence in a struggling student, this episode offers a refreshing truth: real learning happens when we focus on progress, not perfection. Join us for an honest conversation that turns academic stress into family growth opportunities - no teaching degree required!
