Find Freedom in Education and Flourish with Andrew Pudewa Part One | 810

Are you frustrated with how your child is being educated? It’s easy to feel that way, even if you’re homeschooling. Truth is, most of us went to school. It’s hard not to do to our children what was done to us—especially when it comes to escaping a boring, one-size-fits-all approach to education. If you’re looking for my joy in education, listen in, because my friend Andrew Pudewa knows how you’re feeling and he’s here to encourage you. As a beloved teacher and founder of the Institute for Excellence in Writing, Andrew knows a thing or two about what it takes to help children stop surviving and start thriving in education. Listen in! I know you’ll be encouraged!

Andrew Pudewa is the founder of the Institute for Excellence in Writing (or IEW) and a father of seven. Traveling and speaking around the world, he addresses issues related to teaching, writing, thinking, spelling, and music with clarity, insight, practical experience, and humor. His seminars for parents, students, and teachers have helped transform many a reluctant writer and have equipped educators with powerful tools to dramatically improve students’ skills.

Although he is a graduate of the Talent Education Institute in Japan and holds a Certificate of Child Brain Development from the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, his best endorsement is from a young Alaskan boy who called him “the funny man with the wonderful words.” He and his wonderful, heroic wife, Robin, have homeschooled their seven children and are now proud grandparents of eleven, making their home in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
