“Hi, I’m Amalia. I am an English teacher with 15 years of experience and a mom of a 7-year-old. I love my students, but in the last few years, a heartbreaking silence started to fill the breaks. It wasn’t the peaceful silence of focused minds; it was the empty silence of children lost inside their screens, sitting next to each other but worlds apart.

I look at my students and see how their spark is fading—how difficult it becomes for them to dream, to write, to simply connect with another human being. It breaks my heart every single day.

The moment I noticed that I couldn’t take the phone out of my 7-year-old child’s hand, that was my moment of ‘Enough’. I realized I needed to stop just observing and start doing something. Now, as an Usborne Partner and the creator of Digital Detox Elite, my mission has changed. I am no longer just teaching lessons; I am fighting for your child’s right to a real childhood.

I’ve decided to offer you alternatives to sitting in front of the screens for hours. My mission is to help you disconnect from the noise, and reconnect with your child’s heart. Let’s build a future where our children are masters of technology, not its slaves.”
