Seminars
Available for online and in-person keynotes
Victoria has an amazing ability to capture her audience, entertain them, and leave them thinking differently about the role of parent, student, and teacher in education today.
COVID learning proved the importance of the skills Victoria shares in her seminars. Her third graders were able to navigate an unfamiliar learning environment because they had learned how to try something, have it fail, and try something new until they solved a challenge long before COVID turned everything upside down. Answers weren’t available online, so they solved our challenges before the specialists could.
Victoria focuses on the skills that were necessary for her children to grow into resilient individuals who are able to navigate their rapidly changing world. She focuses on capitalizing on mistakes, how to internalize time and independently manage projects, Victoria offers practical, research-driven advice customized to each audience whether it is parents, educators, or students.

"She provides the missing link," stated Kim Linker at a recent training session. "Vicki provides parents with strategies that are unique yet simple."
Children of Today
“Strategies that I once taught in the period between 1967-to 1990’s will no longer serve our children in a society that is changing exponentially faster everyday. They need more instruction in real life strategies. The parent’s role in education needs re-evaluation and guidance provided to help them shift from teacher at home to mentor in life strategies. AI Apps are requiring students to learn when to question and how to question.”
