E16: Helping Teens Choose the Right Post-Secondary Fit
In this episode of Raising the Next Gen, I sit down with Alanna Negri, a dream maker, education advisor, and regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant, to explore how parents and teens can navigate the often overwhelming journey of post-secondary education. Alanna shares wisdom from 25 years of experience helping students discover their passions, bridge the gap between parental expectations and personal dreams, and create meaningful education pathways.
We discuss how exploration, curiosity, and hands-on experiences like co-ops and study abroad programs can shape more confident, self-aware learners. Alanna highlights the growing flexibility in education, from online high school credits to immersive international programs where students can study subjects like English or history abroad.
