Sherri Lander Smith
Sherri profoundly believes that every
child has unique gifts and talents and that adults, in particular all parents,
are charged with the honor and responsibility of seeking ways to facilitate
what is essential to insure the child's future success and well-being.
She belieives that children are capable
of self-drecting their learning and that when provided with the freedom to explore,
open commnication, hoensty and respect from those who guide them, their potential
knows know bounds.
She believes that education is a
shared journey of discovery and life long process of questioning, experimenting,
innovating and exploration and that adults must be ready to perform some very
important roles along the path of a child's learning experiences such as:
- actively listening
- providing resources based on abilities and interests,
- understanding basic education concepts in order to customize
a plan based on individual needs
- mentoring when chosen, instructing when necessary,
- modeling intentional learning behaviors at all times,
- facilitating problem-solving
- recognizing and supporting authentic learning moments.
Sherri believes that a parent is their
child's most important resource and learning guide, and works to help them understand
their child's unique gifts and talents while customizing a genius education
that respects the dynamic of their family, school and community environments.
