“This book offers practical ideas for parents to facilitate children's growth as they mature and develop thinking skills, including how to best work with schools without taking over for them.”
Nic Cooper, Author of How to Keep Being a Parent...When Your Child Stops Being a Child
Baker College, Jackson, MI
“Written in a conversational style, the chapters flow and the information is cumulative. The author discovered the importance of the brain as it applies to learning and a successful life and then translated the information into an understandable text that is parent and teacher friendly. I love this book.”
Patricia Baker, Teacher
Mary Walter Elementary School, Fauquier County, VA
"After Dr. Tate presented 20 Ways to Increase Your Child’s Brain Power at our school, a father informed me he planned to re-paint his home because Dr. Tate spoke about how color influences children. How great is that? The parents were so excited about this interactive workshop! Many inquired if a date had been scheduled for Dr. Tate’s return visit."
Charlene Christian-Andrews, Staff Development Coordinator
Suffolk Public Schools, VA
"This book is an example of how powerful Marcia Tate’s brain-based strategies are when applied in the lives of our children. While targeting parents, her strategies are presented in a practical, down-to-earth manner that recognizes that parents are a child’s first and most enduring teachers."
Gina Humphries, Academically/Intellectually Gifted Coordinator
Catawba County Schools, Newton, NC
"Marcia Tate brings the same excitement for brain-compatible teaching strategies to parents that she has shown educators for years. She makes all of us—educators and parents alike—think about how we can help our students become successful in school and throughout their lives!"
Kathy Bowie, Curriculum Facilitator
McLeansville Elementary School, NC
