Testimonials

”All my gratitude goes to Rebecka for organizing The Freedom to Learn workshop and being a wonderful, loving host, guiding us through the questions and doubts. To me, as a parent who has just begun navigating the unschooling waters, it has been the most encouraging and empowering place yet. I cannot even express how much it meant to me to have a group of like-minded parents to share the journey with, and also to be seen, heard and understood when it came to personal stories, fears and self-reflections. It was a wonderful space to connect, learn, heal and grow. I would recommend the workshop without any hesitation!”

”My partner has for a long time been talking warmly about the unschooling path and expressed his wish, that we would unschool our daughter. I’ve mostly been sceptical, since I had an deeply joyful, safe and meaningful experience with school when I was I child, going to a freeschool in Denmark with many of the unschooling principals. And I guess since I was also brought up with the big idea in our part of the world that “education is nessecary and a big privilege”. Attending Rebecka’s workshop MY CHILD AND ME made the tipping point for me. Can’t say exactly what it was, but her warm presence, clear communication and huge knowledge on what it takes for a child to really thrive in the world as a creative, free and independent human being gave me an experience where I could feel the truth of the free learning apporoach in my body and not only relate to it on a mental level, as when my partner have been talking about it over the past few years.
I would recommend everyone who has the slightest couriosity about unschooling/ free learning or maybe even feel provoked or sceptical about it, to spend time with Rebecka in one of her workshops.”

”I really loved Rebecka’s presence and message, and feel so inspired by her workshop MY CHILD AND ME I attended this summer at Ängsbacka. If you have a chance to take her workshops, I highly recommend it!”

Anna Sarito Israelsson

”Thank you Rebecka, for the best workshop ever! I wish of all my heart that ALL grown-ups that deal with children could take FREEDOM TO LEARN!”

Anna-Lena Utterström

”Theory and practice in a lovely co-creation. Reflections on my parenting and how my baggage affects it. Wonderful communion. I feel strengthened in my conviction that the children KNOW, that they have come programmed with new information. What we need to do as parents, is unpack our baggage, let go of the breakes and co-create with our children. Rebecka guided as softly and carefully from the outside towards our inside and then out again. She’s a true inspiration, grounded and happy with so much wisdom and experience. I would recommend any parent to take her workshops”

Malin Hammarberg

”I’m so grateful for MY CHILD AND ME! It’s been amazing to get so much space for reflection and discussion. I’ve become really clear of what I perceive as success for my daughter, and how that success is reached through free play and my creating the best context for my child’s learning. Through her committment and experience, Rebecka shows true talent in inspiring and guiding the group through the process, at the same time as she manages to create a safe space where the collective wisdom of the group could be expressed. I feel that the workshop has strengthened me as a parent, and at the same time I am taking with me some really concrete and practical tools that will help my child and me flow better.”

Jennie Elevall

”After the workshop MY CHILD AND ME I felt inspired and strengthened as a parent. I got to set a clear direction for my parenthood: a dream of a home where we trust our children and their capacities where their interests, curiosity and reflections guide us, and where we as parents can follow without directing them. A clear mantra that I took with me, was: I am my children’s context: what do I want that to look like?”

Helen Källman

”MY CHILD AND ME helped me rid myself of constructed ideas about what it means to be “a good parent”, and start making conscious choices based upon my own experiences instead. I got to understand the potential of free and self-directed learning, and got huge insights around what we in the school system call the hidden agenda. I think that this workshop works really well not only for parents, but also for teachers, facilitators and directors, since it promotes time for reflection and discussion where everyone’s experiences are the starting point for the program.”

Emma Crawley

”Rebecka’s workshop FREEDOM TO LEARN helped me put words on my feelings towards the schoolsystem. For years I have been struggling with my child’s schooling, and our fight to get the system adapt to her needs. Now I understand what’s wrong and why. The workshop also made me understand how conditioned we become in a system built upon coercion instead of the child’s natural inner drive.

As a parent to a child with Autism, it got even clearer how the system isn’t supporting our children’s natural curiosity and creativity, but rather creates an alienation if you’re not capable of adapting to the mold.

Rebecka is a truly amazing and highly knowledgeable workshop leader with a great commitment to children and their rights. She takes the participants for a ride through new perspectives that leads us into reflections and discussions about what we need to do in order to support our children for real.

I recommend EVERYONE that ever has anything to do with children to take Rebecka’s workshops. The only thing you need is some courage and an open mind.”

Emma Skoglund

”In Rebecka’s workshops there is such an amazing focus on children, but also on love towards humanity. We have all been children, and we’re all a product of the world. It isn’t easy to be a human being, but through Rebecka’s words and perspective it is easy to understand how we should have the right to be.

Rebecka is an absolutely brilliant lecturer and workshop leader: well prepared, knowledgeable, experienced, down to earth and fun. I strongly recommend her workshops to anyone who wants the best for their children, in a world that feels distanced, coercive and without focus on the individual’s personal and collective needs. And for those who are struggling for their children’s well-being in a school system full of demands: Rebecka brings you understanding, new perspectives, hope and consideration.”
