Listen Later

"I don’t want to watch my kids play the same game I had to play growing up."

What happens when a mom watches her bright, curious daughters slowly lose their love of learning in traditional school? MacKenzie Price didn't just complain she revolutionized education entirely.

In this powerful conversation, MacKenzie shares how she went from frustrated parent to education innovator, creating Alpha School and the 2H Learning model that's transforming how kids learn across North America.

In this episode, we cover:

🩶 How to spot the signs that your child is checked out and what to do about it.

🩶 Why screen time for learning isn't the same as mindless scrolling

🩶 How to find your child's unique spark (hint: stop projecting your dreams)

If you're ready to think differently about your child's education, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about school and inspire you to advocate fiercely for your child's potential.

About MacKenzie MacKenzie Price is the Co-Founder of 2 Hour Learning and Alpha Schools, Texas Sports Academy, NextGen Academy, and GT School, a growing suite of groundbreaking ventures revolutionizing the landscape of K-12 education by harnessing the power of AI to offer students personalized, mastery-based learning.

Students in her schools spend just 2 hours a day on academics while classes scoring in the top 2% nationally, freeing up most of their day to pursue passions, learn life skills and do project-based workshops. Price shares her ideas about reimagining education with her considerable social media following, including her 730K followers on Instagram, her YouTube channel and through her Future of Education podcast.

Price is a member of the Forbes Technology Council and the advisory board of the Center for Education and Public Service at the University of Austin. A Stanford University graduate with a BA in Psychology, Price lives in Austin, Texas with her family.
