Free Ebooks on CD to Families in South Florida
By: Jake Solochek
Three Reasons to put Pat Harris and Steve McCrea on your computer.
1. Free CD is being given away and your computer can display the information.
2. Seven Ways of Learning and other teaching techniques can improve learning, but access to the wisdom and expertise of a family therapist improves the attention.
3. Hear about the Whole School Experiment that Pat and Steve are starting next month.

Steve McCrea
Education Specialist
Developer of guidebooks for students and parents
Plus the “Three Tips from a Tutor” booklet and CD (for no-school days and evenings without homework)
Producer of “After the Storm” == Pat Harris speaks to the hearts of anyone who has survived a storm. It’s the old lesson of turning lemons into lemonade.
Anger Management with Pat Harris
Attitude is more important than aptitude. Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence, estimates that 65% of success in life is based on social skills, with academics accounting for less than one-third of our success. Shouldn’t teachers and schools discuss how to handle stress?
Schools focus on test scores, which raises anxiety and fear.
Anger is growing among teens and parents. More and more kids are resorting to force to handle unwanted situations.
Consider these headlines
Teen brings knife to school
Student hits another student in dispute over shoes
A student hits a teacher after the teacher asks her to remove a head covering.
Anger affects a student’s performance in school, yet most teachers resort to giving after-school detention. The focus for most teachers is on school work and tips for passing a test.
What is a parent to do?
What are teachers to do?
Pat Harris, licensed family therapist, has an alternative (anger management) that is being used in several schools in south Florida.
Pat cites research that shows the need for “reframing” rather than lashing out.
Learning another language or learning how to teach English to people who don't speak English as a first language are both techniques for getting the person to be focused on something around him or her.
Writing articles for a travel web site is another tactic and you an learn more by becoming a "Conversation Assistant" at a local school.
