GEAC™
Global Learner’s Success Conference

An Anthropologist proposed a game to an African tribe’s children. He put a basket, full of fruit, near a tree and told them that whoever got there first, won the sweet fruits.
When he told them to run, they all took each other’s hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats. When he asked them why they had run like that, as one could have had all the fruits for himself, they said, UBUNTU. How can one of us be happy if all the others are sad? Ubuntu in the Xhosa culture means, “I am, because, we are”.
And as Ubuntu is the theme of this year’s conference, we would like to invite you to join us for two days filled with exciting information about how to create your own micro-school and see the newest techniques in creating critical-thinking students who can co-create their own futures.
You’ll hear from teachers and parents who created their own micro-schools from the ground up. You will learn how they began and the ups and downs that they experienced throughout their journey. You will also visit other micro-schools, from around the globe, to see what they are doing and see the newest techniques they use in their micro-schools. You will learn how to engage students in the entire process of their education and to look beyond obstacles, for opportunities.

Watch them to get a perspective on the theme of our conference
If you are interested in innovative education, or you want to apply teaching techniques such as those used in exclusive schools like Harvard University, which are reserved for only the few ($50,000 (+) a year/student).
We offer techniques they use, and beyond. They have spent millions of dollars in research to find best outcomes. We are now able to expose these methods to the public and especially all teachers and parents. Whether you have a micro-school or want to start one or even if you want to homeschool your children, it is you that we want to help
We welcome everyone who understands that we can only build an effective educational system from bottom up, where all of us are participating, holding hands, as it is with our conference theme, “UBUNTU”.
Our conference introduces logical thinking in every school, for all children. Teachers and parents will become the leading educational force now, and will be considered first when funding arrives as they will already be practitioners of the techniques offered by GEAC.
If your child’s school isn’t using these techniques, please consider incorporating them within your community! ACT – don’t wait for change to happen without your input. Give your community this opportunity. I AM, because WE ARE – “UBUNTU”.
