Today’s guest is Matt Beaudreau.

We’ve been following Matt’s work for a while, especially since Adrian has been a teacher for 15 years. 

Matt is the founder of hundreds of schools around the world that resist the typical education model. Rather than rely on systems and programs that strip young heroes of their sovereignty and ability to truly learn, Matt’s schools focus on independent thought, self-awareness and authentic character growth. 

It’s what every parent wants for their child and it’s exactly what we get into today. 

Here are the highlights:

  • How the education system creates fear of failure, unilateral control and loss of critical thinking
  • How parents can teach their children to “play the game” while they’re at school
  • Why all classrooms should remove marks, grade levels, and authoritative control structures
  • Why education must change its language (e.g. heroes versus students; exhibitions versus testing; mentros versus teachers; and studios versus classrooms)
  • How we often hold our own children back from how “wildly capable” they are

This conversation will leave with so much to think about. 

Reach out to us or to Matt to share your thoughts.
