Description: It was Marva Collins' attitude that made children learn. It was her constant "You can do it, "that convinced her students there wasn't anything they could not do. This independent minded teacher's drive, courage and dedication helped her children reach their full learning potential.

Marva Collins' way is a prescription for effective teaching and a graphic indictment of what is wrong with much of American education today. More than just an account of one teacher's struggles and success, it demonstrates a teaching technique that can be applied in every classroom and a home.(Taken from back of the books.).
