How to raise successful people

Change Your Way of Educating, Change the World.

The Grandmother of Silicon Valley, a legendary teacher and mother of three successful daughters, shares her tried and tested methods for raising happy, healthy, and successful children.

There is no perfect way to educate, but the pillars of Esther Wojcicki's method can be of great help to you:

Trust

Respect

Independence

Collaboration

Kindness

As a teacher, Esther Wojcicki has been brave enough to challenge conventional teaching by making students active participants in their own learning. As a mother, she understood and knew how to foster responsibility, self-sufficiency, and creativity in her daughters. This combination of practical wisdom and inspiration is an invaluable resource that can be very useful for those who today are responsible for the education of children and young people.

Educating in the digital age is a challenge, but these pages show us that modern parenting can be a source of joy instead of a constant struggle. Wojcicki's innate understanding of child development has led her to become one of the most praised teachers in the world, as well as the mother of three highly successful daughters: one is the CEO of YouTube; another, the founder and CEO of 23andMe; and the other, a scientist.

This great teacher is leading a revolution around the world not only in the way she prepares her students, but also in how she promotes their health and the well-being of their parents. Steve Jobs took his children out of private school and brought them to Palo Alto Public High School so they would have the opportunity to study with her. When Jobs was fired from Apple, he sat in Wojcicki's classroom and asked her for advice.

Wojcicki presents us with her unique and scientifically proven methodology and offers parents the clear and visionary guide they have been waiting for: a manifesto that radically changes the paradigm of education in the digital age.

Review:
«This woman is leading a revolution: she shows us how to be the best we can be so that our children can be too.»
