Today's guest is one of the most unusual voices in education circles. His name is Matt Barnes and he believes that every role in education must shift, starting with the parent.

His position is that the parent -- not the school -- must become the child's "Head Coach" and that good grades are no longer the aim. Instead, he coaches parents on how to build their kids into "independent learners."

He has taught thousands of parents how to adopt a "Head Coach" mindset for their kids through workshops and educational podcasts.

Today we’ll explore what parents need to do and most importantly, who they need to become, so your kids can thrive in the modern world.
