Quantum Learning Teacher Featured in Obama Primetime TV Advertisement

Barack Obama’s 30-minute television ad, which aired in primetime Wednesday night on three major television networks, featured a Quantum Learning-trained teacher, Julianna Sanchez.

 

The Obama infomercial included the story of how Ms. Sanchez is a widowed mother of two children, working 62 hours a week, putting one child through college and another child through private school. A segment of the Obama ad showed her at her main job, a charter school, where she helps at-risk youth and then at a Quantum Learning workshop, where she continues to improve her skills as an educator. The Obama infomercial also showed her at her second job, working with a health care provider, where she cares for a special-needs child in the afternoons.

 

Quantum Learning is a powerful and engaging teaching and learning methodology that integrates best educational practices into a unified whole. This synergistic approach to the learning process covers both theory and practice. It has been proven to increase academic achievement and improve students' attitudes toward the learning process, while rekindling the passion for teaching. These integrated, comprehensive programs turn abstract theory into practical applications that can be used immediately in the classroom.

 

Quantum Learning serves the academic world with its highly successful educational model through Quantum Learning for Teachers, Quantum Learning for Students, Quantum Learning for Administrators, and Quantum Learning for Parents programs, as well as administrator and teacher workshops.

 

The parent company, Quantum Learning Network, also produces learning and life skills summer camps for students ages 9 to 22. These academic camps, which operate under the names of SuperCamp and Quantum U, have graduated over 50,000 students since launching in 1982.
