Katharine Hsu is on a mission to help children ENJOY reading and writing because these days, being good at something is not enough. If you grow up hating something, you will never use it to your advantage. Enjoyment also happens to be the magical way to improve in literacy and language twice as fast. Growing up, English was her second language, and she hated to read and write. It was hard and felt boring. For the last 11 years, Katharine has studied both traditional and modern literacy practices and worked with hundreds of children from diverse backgrounds. What she's learned is that just about every kid can fall in love with reading and writing if you teach it in a way that matches the child's personality, culture, and learning style.Katharine now teaches writing classes both online and in person for K-8 as a way to improve reading and self-confidence.Fall registration is now open. ______________________________________________________________________ The Edupreneur: Your Blueprint To Jumpstart And Scale Your Education BusinessYou’ve spent years in the classroom, leading PD, designing curriculum, and transforming how students learn.

We believe student-facing staff are key to transformative educational experiences. Folks in instructional and coaching roles are often the ones asked to do the herculean job of ensuring every student is set up for success and graduates on time.And yet, very few tools are purpose-built for their needs. This job is made more challenging as classrooms move online and class sizes grow. ​At Ribbon Education, we are building the ‘operating system’ for student support, starting with a set of free tools for teachers (and student success teams) that maximize insights and minimize busy work to help you focus on what you do best - understanding and building relationships with your students. The future of scaled, online education only succeeds when we help educators and coaches be more successful in supporting students. ______________________________________________________________________ The Edupreneur: Your Blueprint To Jumpstart And Scale Your Education BusinessYou’ve spent years in the classroom, leading PD, designing curriculum, and transforming how students learn.

Our image of a classroom community in secondary education is rapidly evolving. The experience of remote learning during a pandemic has altered our mental picture of students occupying rows of desks with a teacher nearby, closely monitoring their activities. But even when teachers are able to be in physical proximity to their students, the research is clear that students need to be empowered to take ownership of their learning in order to be fully engaged. The question this book explores is: How can teachers step back, stop micromanaging, and allow students more agency?In this engaging guide, instructional specialist Miriam Plotinsky breaks hover-free teaching down into four sequential stages: mindset, deeper relationships, planning for engagement, and choice-based instruction. Her book shows how teachers can free themselves from helicopter habits and allow students greater control of their own learning, while still managing and maximizing classroom time effectively.Miriam Plotinsky is an instructional specialist with Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland, and the author of Teach More, Hover Less: How to Stop Micromanaging Your Secondary Classroom. Also a National Board Certified Teacher and certified administrator, she lives in Silver Spring, Maryland. ______________________________________________________________________ The Edupreneur: Your Blueprint To Jumpstart And Scale Your Education BusinessYou’ve spent years in the classroom, leading PD, designing curriculum, and transforming how students learn.

Kaywanda Lamb is an entrepreneur, educator, coach, author, speaker, blogger, podcaster, and The Winning Single Mom. Her journey to being a sought out speaker, advocate for single moms everywhere, and a transformational coach began when her boys were young. Kaywanda had a choice to make: stay in a relationship that didn't honor her or raise her boys as a single mom. She decided to take option B (betting on herself and God) and has spent the last 22 years chasing her dreams and raising good babies. She returned to college 4 times in that span, holds a Masters in Spanish Literature, 2 Bachelor's degrees, is 2 classes shy of an M. Ed, and is a certified principal. Her motto is “Do it anyway!” because you can dream about a better life or you can make it happen. She now splits her time between showing other women they, too, can parent well, thrive, and win and teaching business professionals conversational Spanish.Kaywanda spent 17 years in education teaching Spanish at the secondary and post-secondary level. Kaywanda took her knowledge of business, her own experience as a language learner and educator, and created SpanishforSmallBusiness.com, a website dedicated to teaching entrepreneurs and small business owners Spanish specific to their industry. This idea to create custom curriculums per client and by industry came to Kaywanda as she began her own entrepreneurial journey. Kaywanda realized that the way she was taught to teach Spanish is not the way busy professionals needed to learn. Fast forward 7 years, and she’s taught real estate agents, health care professionals, entrepreneurs, insurance agents, social workers, logistics supervisors, HR professionals, business coaches, nurses, diversity professionals, and more to speak Spanish with her customized 1:1 conversational business Spanish program. Kaywanda loves people, teaching, and learning about new cultures. Kaywanda is an avid traveler, and her next goal is to take business professionals abroad to further expand their Spanish-speaking ability. As an Afro American woman who is bilingual, diversity and inclusion is important to Kaywanda. She often speaks on cultural awareness, diversity, and being sensitive to our differences to leverage them to help our companies grow.Kaywanda recently launched Spanish for Black Girls™ to teach ambitious, high-achieving black women Spanish. She decided to focus on black women because she saw how women and in particular black women have been treated historically and decided to share her love of speaking and teaching Spanish with her sisters. Her goal is to teach 1 million black women Spanish through her course over the next ten years so they can increase their bargaining power and competitive edge against similar candidates in their careers, expand their horizons, and communicate with their clients and coworkers.Kaywanda blogs and coaches at KaywandaLamb.com and you can purchase her two books “Do It Anyway! The Single Mom’s Guide to Living Life and Achieving Her Goal” and “Parent, Thrive, Win: A 31-Day Devotional for Courageous Single Moms Who Know God Has Called Them to Be More” plus The Single Mom Success Planner at www.KaywandaLamb.com/shop.

Katharine Hsu is on a mission to help children ENJOY reading and writing because these days, being good at something is not enough. If you grow up hating something, you will never use it to your advantage. Enjoyment also happens to be the magical way to improve in literacy and language twice as fast. Growing up, English was her second language, and she hated to read and write. It was hard and felt boring. For the last 11 years, Katharine has studied both traditional and modern literacy practices and worked with hundreds of children from diverse backgrounds. What she's learned is that just about every kid can fall in love with reading and writing if you teach it in a way that matches the child's personality, culture, and learning style. ______________________________________________________________________ The Edupreneur: Your Blueprint To Jumpstart And Scale Your Education BusinessYou’ve spent years in the classroom, leading PD, designing curriculum, and transforming how students learn.
