For the past ten years, 100% of her students have been accepted into college. A popular speaker, Dr. J travels the globe to train educators and others. She is frequently featured on radio and TV spreading her message of hope and empowerment through education. Many people have no clue that they can get into college-even if: - they have a low grade point average (GPA) - they don't have the money to pay for it - no one in their family has gone to college before - English is not their first language - they're not a US citizen It's not their fault-no one has taken the time to explain the truth. Until now. Dr. Jennifer Herrera reveals her proven system for "Making College Come True" and ten keys that you can use right away to set yourself-or your student-up for success.

Download or read book Success Without College written by Linda Lee and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't have to go to college. That's very easy to say, and very hard to believe. The expectation of a college degree has become a traditional aspect of American parenting. A college diploma has become such a popular symbol of personal success and culture that 66 percent of U.S. high school graduates go to college, up from 14 percent only sixty years ago. But out of all the college students in America, only 26 percent get degrees after six years. Why have we come to believe that college is right for everyone, or that our children should go there right after high school? With a college education now costing an average of a hundred thousand dollars, maybe it's time for American parents to reconsider: do you really need college to succeed? As a middle-class parent, Linda Lee assumed that her son would attend a prestigious college and graduate in four years with high grades. Isn't that what all children of intelligent, middle-class parents do? Fifty thousand dollars later, after having seen every grade from A to F--and a few more, including W and I--Lee realized that her son was not ready for college. She was shocked to discover that his experience is not an exception but the rule: only 26 percent of students receive a bachelor's degree within six years. Why, then, are parents led to believe that their children must go to college right away? Why have we come to believe that college is right for everyone? Why isn't there as much focus on the alternatives to college as there is on getting into a good school? Success Without College is a landmark book. Linda Lee, an editor and writer for the "New York Times, reveals the surprising facts of why many bright kids are not suitedfor college (or at least not right after high school), and she explains to readers why this is happening. She provides profiles of students and parents from around the country who have found creative, positive solutions to their college dilemma; she interviews deans, admissions counselors, and other experts from the most esteemed schools and organizations in the country; and she offers suggestions for what parents can do if a child doesn't want to go to college right away, or isn't ready to get the most from the college experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to take ownership of your success, overcome self-doubt, and banish the thought patterns that undermine your ability to feel—and act—as bright and capable as others already know you are with this award-winning book by Valerie Young. It’s only because they like me. I was in the right place at the right time. I just work harder than the others. I don’t deserve this. It’s just a matter of time before I am found out. Someone must have made a terrible mistake. If you are a working woman, chances are this internal monologue sounds all too familiar. And you’re not alone. From the high-achieving Ph.D. candidate convinced she’s only been admitted to the program because of a clerical error to the senior executive who worries others will find out she’s in way over her head, a shocking number of accomplished women in all career paths and at every level feel as though they are faking it—impostors in their own lives and careers. While the impostor syndrome is not unique to women, women are more apt to agonize over tiny mistakes, see even constructive criticism as evidence of their shortcomings, and chalk up their accomplishments to luck rather than skill. They often unconsciously overcompensate with crippling perfectionism, overpreparation, maintaining a lower profile, withholding their talents and opinions, or never finishing important projects. When they do succeed, they think, Phew, I fooled ’em again. An internationally known speaker, Valerie Young has devoted her career to understanding women’s most deeply held beliefs about themselves and their success. In her decades of in-the-trenches research, she has uncovered the often surprising reasons why so many accomplished women experience this crushing self-doubt. In The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, Young gives these women the solution they have been seeking. Combining insightful analysis with effective advice and anecdotes, she explains what the impostor syndrome is, why fraud fears are more common in women, and how you can recognize the way it manifests in your life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this timely examination of children of immigrants in New York and London, Natasha Kumar Warikoo asks, Is there a link between rap/hip-hop-influenced youth culture and motivation to succeed in school? Warikoo challenges teachers, administrators, and parents to look beneath the outward manifestations of youth culture -- the clothing, music, and tough talk -- to better understand the internal struggle faced by many minority students as they try to fit in with peers while working to lay the groundwork for successful lives. Using ethnographic, survey, and interview data in two racially diverse, low-achieving high schools, Warikoo analyzes seemingly oppositional styles, tastes in music, and school behaviors and finds that most teens try to find a balance between success with peers and success in school.

D. and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book DescriptionThis second edition contains many updates from the original and provides tools for students as working adults as well as those transitioning from high school to college.As of this writing there about 3000 Amazon e-books on "College Success." No wonder it becomes confusing to sort out what is right for you (and your parents if you are transitioning from high school) to use as a guide, and what is not.Most of these e-books on college success focus on basic "how-tos." And "how-tos" are definitely needed. However, it can be daunting to students when they consider how to go about succeeding in college. Focusing first on a strong motivator helps. Then the routines to achieve the end goal will be exhilarating, not enervating. One of our biggest motivators is money. Income to sustain a reasonable life style.Whether this is your first exposure to college preparation, or whether you are considering college to improve career opportunities or to change careers, learning how to succeed in college and beyond can be one of the most profitable learning experiences you will ever participate in, IF you do it right.I would suggest that we consider college as a business investment, rather than a very costly life expense. Consider for a moment that you had between $100,000 and $200,000 to invest in a major business venture. For illustrative purposes the comparison will be between completing a high school degree and a completing a master's degree. The earnings ratio is roughly 2:1. Of course this will vary depending on when you complete your degree program.So, while planning for college, consider the lifetime wage investment as a motivator, instead of the cost center mind set of expenses. At the same time using the business mind set, reduces the likelihood of emotional decisions, and focuses more on logical decisions supported by sound business planning. My grandfather used to say "separate your vocation from your avocation." Your primary source of income from your passion to learn about something that will likely not yield sustainable income opportunities.So your best first step in your college (job) preparation is sufficient research to thoroughly study the subject of college preparation as an investment. Doing so will involve creating a personalized, detailed plan of success to yield a high return on investment.When it comes to college decisions there are many important factors that need consideration including answering such questions as: - Am I prepared for the teaching differences between high school and college?- If I am considering college as a working adult, what are my goals and how do I achieve them?- In which college can I best succeed?- How much will it cost?- What will be my debt when I complete my degree?- How rapidly can I pay of my college debt?Succeeding in college is one of the best gifts you can give yourself. Preparation is one key. Persistence is the other. Learn how to accomplish both for career success through this book..
