Most importantly, she offers practical and realistic strategies which have helped the thousands of parents she works with clinically and in her sessions for parents and teachers at schools across Australia and New Zealand.The Bonsai Student will show you the best way to be a good parent for your child in their school years.It will teach you how to encourage your child's confidence and capability in their schoolwork so they become motivated and responsible at school, and ready for the years that follow. It is an invaluable resource for parents, teachers and anyone working with parents or children in an educational environment.
