The Learning Game

“Every parent with school-aged kids should read this book! The Learning Game is packed with insights, surprises, and wisdom for raising smarter, happier, and better-adjusted children.” – Nir Eyal, Author, Hooked and Indistractable

“Profoundly simple, simply profound. Ana Lorena has the great teacher’s knack for clear communication. This is an easy-to-read, fun book of wisdom and tried-and-true ideas for teachers, parents, and anyone involved with kids and concerned with their education. It’s about how to help kids leave the “school game” and move on with the real game of learning, the great game that children are designed by nature to play.” – Peter Gray, Research Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience, and Author, Free to Learn

“Ana Lorena is a teacher. She saw the system from within. She knows what’s broken. And she has a vision to fix it.” – Balaji S. Srinivasan (@balajis), Former CTO of Coinbase, and Bestselling Author, The Network State

“Ana Lorena’s new book The Learning Game should be required reading for all educators trying to reimagine how we can overhaul the antiquated methods we use in teaching our children. Kids are natural learners—but to help them supercharge it, we need to make it exciting, fun, and more about how to think rather than what to think. What if we synthesize kids’ natural curiosity, ability to question, and desire to play and have fun with a new curriculum and way of teaching? In that case, I think the results will astound us. I highly recommend this book.” – — Jim O’Shaughnessy, Founder & CEO, O’Shaughnessy Ventures LLC

“As a parent to two growing kids, Ana Lorena’s thoughts felt like a warm hug in response to my fears around schooling. I felt heard and liberated at the same time, through her suggestions and way forward. The Learning Game is a book of hope. Hope for our kids, for the future. A powerful, impactful and necessary read.” – Ankur Warikoo, Entrepreneur and Author

“In her book The Learning Game, Ana Lorena teaches us what we should’ve learned in school (but didn’t). She expertly weaves in the latest research with her own extensive teaching experience and reveals just how much school failed to prepare us for the game of life. The book includes practical strategies for kids—and adults—to help them learn better, retain more, and have fun in the process. A delightful book that turns learning into a game you can’t stop playing.” – Polina Marinova Pompliano, Author, Hidden Genius
