From the TJEd Email Newsletter:
​
Yeats said, "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."
Sadly, most educators and parents opt for pail-filling, because it's all they know.
This is conveyor belt education, which teaches students what to think, using textbooks, group lecture with no personalization, and standardized testing.
​
In contrast, Leadership Education lights the fire in your childrens' souls.
It teaches students how to think using classics and personalized, inspirational mentoring.
Most parents want leadership education for their children; they want their children to be innovative, creative, self-motivated, wise, passionate, and driven to make a difference.
​
Unfortunately, conveyor belt education is all most parents know.
The result: bored kids, frustrated parents.
​
Getting off the conveyor belt requires a completely different philosophy, mindset, and methodology: TJEd.
