Did you know that the path to choosing the "right-fit" college for your child could also lead to life lessons in self-advocacy?
I welcome back Holly Markiecki-Bennetts, a high school guidance counselor and college advisor who is also a mom to one + twins! Holly is a testament to thoughtful and intentional educational decision-making. While many high school seniors embark on the nerve-wracking odyssey of college applications, laden with standardized test scores and wide nets, Holly worked with her oldest daughter to choose a different path.
Our conversation focuses on the challenges students face when transitioning from high school to college, from mastering study habits to time management. Holly brings her 20-year experience in education to the table, offering tangible strategies like using physical planners and the importance of study breaks to enhance learning retention.
A few critical takeaways
- Don't let the fear of failure creep into your college planning journey
- Understand the difference between homework and study and the skills each requires
- Self-advocacy is an invaluable lesson to teach kids in middle and high school
This conversation provides a deeper understanding of the emotional impact of the college planning process on students and parents, as well as valuable resources and parenting perspectives.
I hope you can reflect, relate, and rethink how we guide our children through one of life's most transformative passages.
Please enjoy my conversation with Holly Markiecki-Bennetts.
