A very important aspect in a child’s life, for me, is education. Every child should have the opportunity to receive quality education that will last a lifetime. That’s why I was excited when I got the opportunity to read and giveaway a copy of Mission Possible: How the Secrets of the Success Academics Can Work in Any School by Eva Moskowitz and Arin Lavinia.
It seems that in today’s schools, elementary and high school combined, it’s hard to find those teachers that that are the absolute best for our children. A lot of it has to do with stagnation.
Stagnation, which is the failure to develop, progress or advance, is the main reason why students can’t get the education they desperately need to succeed in today’s world. I think this is because teacher’s just don’t have the resources they need because of government involvement and funds being cut. Plus, teachers are being laid off and so class sizes are getting bigger. How is a child supposed to get the individualized attention they may need to succeed when there’s 30 other children in the classroom too? It’s not fair to our children, nor to the teachers.
It’s certainly not fair to our teachers because they take a lot of the blame for if a child isn’t succeeding the way the parents want them too. I know that teachers do everything in their power to help out their students. They spend as much time as they can educating students, but a lot of the time they have to discipline them as well. To me, I think discipline is the parents problem most of the time. Kids should know how to act correctly in school.
Mission Possible makes a lot of wonderful points about education and teaches you how Success Academies work and how they are able to work in any school. If you would like to learn about them, I definitely suggest you check the book out. If you would like to read more about the book, you can go here to their website. Also, you can follow Eva Moskowitz on Twitter @MoskowitzEva and on Facebook https://www.
