Tips to help our children become successful in education, business and life:

·       Encourage children to love learning about all topics Teach more of the basics—- reading, writing, mathematics

·       Develop communication, business and life training skills Reduce class sizes to promote real learning

·       While it’s nice to provide more electives as options, they are not needed to improve learning skills

·       Make classes more interesting by using various methods of learning, e.g., visuals, audio, kinesthetic applications

·       Eliminate state exams or don’t make them the major measure of success

·       Reduce competition among children while promoting group inclusion and real joint learning

·       Evaluate children in a more holistic manner that includes long-term teacher assessment, tests, various learning skills, overall learning outcomes

·       Trim the cost of providing public education so that it is more affordable to taxpayers
