Linda and Alvin Silbert have worked with children to improve their growth and enhancement for over thirty-five years. They have written over forty books for kids in kindergarten right through to college.

They provide lectures and lead workshops on how to help children succeed in school and beyond.

Also, Linda and Alvin have appeared on radio and television throughout the U.S and Canada.

 

Continuing to work in partnership as writers, education therapists and directors, they have two grown up children and two grandchildren and live in the suburbs of New York.

 

Why do bad grades happen to good kids? That is something I think every parent wants to know. All I can say is look no further than this wonderful book. It doesn’t matter what type of grades your child has achieved - this book is just one of those things you should read regardless of anything else. It makes you think and see problems so much more clearly then you did before. 

 

Also I think this excellent guide will help parents to understand more if they do happen to have a child who isn’t getting good grades. The authors teach you why this is happening and what you can do to help your child using the STRONG Learning Program.

 

There are tales from kids themselves who are low-achievers. Many of them all share the same problem - their parents are too demanding and they feel overwhelmed. Linda and co aim to break down the problems into easy chunks so these youngsters can manage more easily.

 

Every parent needs to take responsibility and can relieve their child’s work burdens by simply dedicating a few moments to help them with their homework, for instance. This is just one of the ways in which the authors recommend to improve your child’s learning.

Each chapter is broken into sections and filled with invaluable advice. Every problem there ever can be is included and solved.

 

This guide uncovers student’s problems and helps communication skills between parents and their children. From increasing their confidence and self-esteem to improving responsibility and trust.  It might sound hard but if you read the advice Linda and Alvin provide, it really can be quite simple. 

Also why not let your child read this? If it can help parents then it might provide solutions for students too. 

 

A well-written book with a bright intriguing cover, packed with useful advice to cherish and share with others.
