Review

You will read and reread CHOOSING THE RIGHT SCHOOL FOR YOUR CHILD. This is an exceedingly useful book for parents who want to choose the school that is most suited to their child s learning style. Dr. Roth and Dr. Van Der Kar-Levinson each have over thirty years of experience assisting families in finding schools that exhibit the highest quality education. We highly endorse their work in the field, and we recommend this unique book for its focus on the needs of all children and their parents.

Choosing the Right School for your Child is chock full of interesting case studies and hints. This book provides a step-by-step guide to help parents through the difficult, and often emotionally-charged, process of selecting the right school for their child. Charts and questionnaires help parents deal with the nuts and bolts of collecting and using information about their own philosophy, their child s needs and the appropriateness of various schools. The authors demystify and make manageable parent s responsibilities as they relate to applications, interviews, and acceptances or rejections. This book is a must for parents who intend to optimize their child s education.
