IntelliBee Parent-Teacher
Training Program: Giving Kids the Tools for Life
The IntelliBee Parent-Teacher Training is
the ultimate support system for raising children who can easily thrive. Since
most education occurs in the home, it has been specially crafted for PARENTS
desiring to ensure their child's future, ignite their mental and emotional brilliance
and enjoy an easy joyful parent/child relationship. For HOMESCHOOLERS,
it is one of the only truly comprehensive curriculums out there, providing
the structure and guidance to guarantee their child develops to their optimal capacity
on every level; physically, emotionally and mentally. Taking advantage of
the crucial early years, we are able to easily establish much more then the foundations
of great intelligence; we establish the self-esteem and habits that lead to ease
and success in every area of life... from career and relationships, to health and
finances. This is the gift that keeps on giving... And the earlier you start,
the more benefits your child will receive.
