Christopher Albrecht

Christopher believes that his job is to teach children, but his mission is to promote lifelong learning. His pedagogy contains six key student-centered pillars: Confidence is key to learning, but given the right environment students can learn to trust themselves to make good decisions; Creativity allows for the expansion of ideas; When students take risks, the rate of failure goes up, and there is nothing wrong with this; All students want to be accepted, but there are times when there are naysayers to ideas; Students and teachers that understand work ethic increase their rate of success; and teaching service-mindedness produces future active citizens. Chris has published two best-selling books in educational psychology Unconventionally Successful and The Rediscovery of Hope and Purpose.
