Los Angeles, CA - Charlene Andersson, a distinguished educator and certified educational therapist, is the subject of a compelling new feature, Learning Without Limits: The Story of Charlene Andersson. This in-depth interview offers a rare and intimate look at her journey from a small-town childhood in New Jersey to becoming a nationally and internationally recognized leader in education.
In the interview, Andersson reflects on the defining moments, challenges, and philosophies that have shaped her decades-long career. Known for blending compassion with strategy, she has worked in both public schools and private educational therapy, reaching students across the learning spectrum. For ten consecutive years, her classroom achieved the highest standardized test scores in her district—yet her focus was never on the numbers.
"I didn’t focus on the test scores," Andersson shares. "I focused on the children. The scores followed."
Her success in the classroom led to international recognition. In 2005, she was selected by the Japanese government as the U.S. delegate for international curriculum development. Since then, she has contributed to educational initiatives in Cuba and the Middle East, spoken at conferences with over 1,000 educators, and advised U.S. leaders on curriculum design and differentiated instruction.
Andersson’s passion extends beyond the classroom into children’s literature. She has authored three books designed to engage young learners, including a collaborative classroom writing project now housed in the Library of Congress. "That book wasn’t about publishing," she explains. "It was about showing kids that their voices matter."
Beyond academics, she has also developed art and enrichment programs for hospitalized children at UCLA Mattel Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House, bringing creativity and hope to children undergoing medical treatment.
Her latest interview not only highlights her philosophy but also reveals the core values that drive her work. She speaks candidly about the power of listening in teaching, her belief that standardized tests cannot define intelligence, and how a single moment of recognition can transform a student’s future.
