Welcome to the
Thinking Café
Resources & Consulting for Thoughtful People
For many years I was a homeschool/unschool mom who taught classes in critical and creative thinking, and thoughtful parenting to families who chose to learn at home. My kids are no longer unschooling, but I am still consulting for families who choose alternative forms of education and continuing to teach creative and critical thinking in my university courses. I am also an Educational Consultant for teaching linguistic and cultural minority students, a certified Habits of Mind Trainer and a Sensitivity Reader for authors and illustrators working with children’s literature for diverse audiences. Please contact me if you think I can be of help to you.
