1005: "Educational Systems & Helping Children Who Don't Fit In" {Interview with Anjilee Ferguson}

"Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten."- B.F. Skinner

In this episode, Anjilee shares her perspective and highlights:

The importance of allowing children to learn according to their learning style and of an education system that's willing to be adaptable
How to build children's confidence after having experienced difficulties in "traditional" schooling systems
Shifting the focus on growth and learning, not just grades

Anjilee has over a decade of experience in the Online Education industry, working at both the high school and college levels. During those years, she has worked with numerous students, residential treatment centers, and curriculum providers to provide the highest quality of learning. Her passion for innovative and creative solutions for students led her to co-found Mountain Point Academy. Throughout her time in Online Education, she has seen the inner workings of many departments, working as a registrar, academic mentor, and enrollment counselor. Anjilee earned her BA in Public Relations from Utah State University and an MS in Management and Leadership from Western Governors University. In her spare time, she likes to work on writing her first book, spend time outdoors or traveling with her family or listening to classic rock music.
