Let's ReThink Education
For too long have we been taught and been teaching to test. Such education, that is only concerned with the grade of an exam, fails our children! We need to do better.
We need to rethink how we teach.
We need to rethink how students learn.
We need to ReThink Education!
ReThink Education Certification Program has been created with a mission to provide progressive training to educators, school leaders and school systems.
