It’s hard to express my gratitude for the amazing classes we have taken from Tracy Ward. I saw immense growth in each of my teens. They were stretched, encouraged and offered the opportunity for greatness. I truly feel that Tracy’s classes changed the trajectory for us. My kids saw they could do hard things and be amazing. She’s one of the best mentors I have ever encountered. She pours her whole soul into her classes and it shows. 10/10 I would recommend her classes and trainings.

Tracy is a masterful mentor and turns whatever she touches into gold! She has worked wonders in the hearts and character of my children as a mentor who goes above and beyond to stretch her students with her contagious passion!  She is incredible at creating opportunities for discovery and growth in a memorable and lasting way. My 22yr old daughter who is now entering a Masters Program at BYU has told me time and again how Miss Tracy’s classes helped prepare her to learn how to be an independent thinker and become a better writer more than any of her classes taken obtaining her Bachelors Degree. Tracy is simply the BEST!!

Passionate, enthusiastic, inspiring, and brilliant are all words that describe Tracy Ward. Tracy has orchestrated so many growth opportunities for myself and my children. She is the queen of organizing events--anywhere from incredible training opportunities taught by others, theater trips, swim camps, family camps, colloquia, and organizing and teaching classes personally for adults and youth alike. 

She is an excellent communicator and presenter who is engaging, hilarious, and relatable. Building community and families is her forte and one of her greatest gifts to humanity! 

All four of my children have been mentored by Tracy in their advanced teenage years.  Tracy is a wealth of knowledge and has exposed each of them to great ideas and great people throughout history. They’ve each grown in their confidence as speakers, writers, and thinkers under her mentorship. She inspires them with her energy and competency. She is well-read and remembers and makes connections in a way that I’ve never seen in anyone. Tracy lives, breathes, and proclaims Truth. 

I’ve learned so much personally through classes and discussions with her. Despite the great difficulties she and her family have experienced, she has a zest for life and chooses to see the abundance and miracles. Her influence in my life is unprecedented. You can’t help but be inspired and be changed for the better in her presence.  I highly recommend Tracy Ward!

Tracy is a gift to this world! She has been a mentor, coach, and cheerleader to each of my eight children since we met her. For nearly twenty years she has been an example, teacher, and mentor to me personally. She has a gift for casting vision for others and helping them see their own potential while leading them to greatness. Tracy is continually challenging and pushing herself to become the best version of herself--to reach her divine potential. Because she comes from a place of experience and walks the path in her own life, she is able to lovingly lead others in that path for themselves and does so with wisdom and grace. She is enthusiastic, joyful, positive, thoughtful, articulate, and full of vision, hope, and action. I know my life has been and continues to be blessed by my association with Tracy and I'm confident anyone who has the privilege of knowing Tracy will recognize that in their own experience as well.

Tracy’s extensive experience in teaching and coaching has included all age ranges from children and youth to every phase of adulthood. I’ve had the privilege of both learning from, and teaching along side Tracy for many years. She has a constant commitment to learning and personal growth that is invaluable to her students. But what really makes her special is her deep understanding of people. She has a unique ability to connect with everyone on a personal level, recognize their strengths and challenges, and foster their potential. This combination of deep knowledge, dedication to growth, and empathetic insight makes Tracy a truly wonderful coach and mentor. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to maximize their potential in any area of life.

"It may be possible for each to think too much of his own potential glory hereafter; it is hardly possible for him to think too often or too deeply about that of his neighbor...

There are no ordinary people. 

You have never talked to a mere mortal." C.S. Lewis

Tracy has written this truth on her soul! And that, combined with years of honing her skill as a mentor, has allowed her to effectively guide youth in stretching and developing the greatness within themselves. My family has been deeply blessed through her mentoring.

Tracy is an amazing mentor! She’s always kind and encouraging while also pushing me to be the best I can be. Miss Tracy is passionate! When she has knowledge she wants to share with you, she will find a way to help you understand! She makes learning fun and interesting, and somehow transfers some of that passion for knowledge and truth to her students. Tracy is a defender of truth! She promotes asking questions which makes it easy to come to her with questions when I don’t understand. Tracy loves her students! She seeks to know each one of us personally and helps us grow. After taking her class, I can confidently say that Miss Tracy loves me! She wants me to succeed, and will always be willing to help me. Another thing I love about Tracy is that she loves God and councils with God about what we need to learn and how we can best learn it. There was one time that she changed the assignment and the new assignment was exactly what I needed that week! Tracy is an amazing mentor, and I’m convinced that if every kid had a “Miss Tracy” in their life, everyone would love learning as much as I do now!

It's hard to put into words how my life has changed since having Tracy in it. I took a class from her, and my personal growth was exponential as a wife, mother, and a homeschool mom. She has a deep understanding of life, the world, and how to change it one person at a time. She inspires me to be a better person, and to dive in and really get a real education that can change the course of my life, my family, and those around me. She has the tools and knowledge to help everyone! You won't regret it!

I remember very well the first classes I took with Tracy Ward. I took classes from her during a time when I was going through a period of intense change. I was 14 or 15, I believe, when I signed up for her Wake Up and Be Awesome class. In that class, I learned how to write down and set achievable goals and establish patterns of learning and progress that I still use today, several years later. I am now 22 years old and have graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in English and have been accepted into BYU’s Master’s program, where I will begin studying Creative Nonfiction this Fall.

I remember well how Tracy guided class and group discussions on difficult and important topics brought up by current world events. She helped guide me through several critical paradigm shifts that resulted in me becoming more confident in my feminist beliefs and the power I have as a woman to be an influence for positive change and goodness. I learned the true definition of beauty and how to seek and cultivate it. I learned to be more open-minded and tolerant. There were many painful moments where I came to the realization that I carried unintentionally harmful biases and prejudices. Because of her encouragement, I was able to broaden my worldview, lay aside much of my prejudice, and come to accept responsibility over my actions and the destiny of my life.

She is a woman of great character and wisdom who uses her talents to benefit and lift those around her. Give her a chance and she will give you the tools you need to bring health, happiness, and prosperity into your life.

 Over the past 8 years my children and I have enjoyed and greatly benefitted from Tracy's mentoring in LOTS of capacities, because Tracy is always offering GOBS of amazing opportunities. She has a gift for executing great ideas and a drive to make the world a better, more joyful place.  

      I have taken classes from her on inspiring our children to greatness, fostering a positive learning environment, and, most recently, on the prominent worldviews affecting our society today. I have also taken part in her ongoing colloquia for many years and been so blessed educationally. My children have taken gymnastics classes from her and also enjoyed many other extracurricular opportunities Tracy has put together, like attending high-quality plays and Swim Camp. My favorite thing about Tracy as a mentor is her focus on the individual and the healthy development of their whole soul, whatever the subject. To know Tracy is to love her AND become a better soul. 

I've taken several classes from Tracy Ward and they've been nothing short of incredible. She teaches in a way that educates, motivates, inspires, and leaves a long-lasting impact on her students. Her classes have personally taught me many life skills and introduced me to many ideas that have positively influenced me and helped me long after the classes had ended. If you get the chance to get coaching or take a course from her, take it!

Tracy is a powerful mentor who has paid the price of greatness by years of study and applying the principles that she has learned to her life. She has a way of asking the deep questions that makes you search yourself and challenges you to make yourself a better person. She has touched my life forever. After learning by her side for the last few years, I will never be the same. 

I am privileged to have been mentored by Tracy over several years as we have met monthly to talk about history, literature, government, worldviews, etc. Tracy is one of those rare teachers who can inspire and motivate you through a hard pile of reading without making you feel weighted down. Her enthusiasm and passion is so contagious, it makes you excited to dig in and get started, no matter how fat the books or difficult the subject. Book discussions with Tracy always leave me with questions to ponder or more great books to read, along with thoughts on how to improve and change. I am so grateful for the way she has shared her knowledge and testimony with the community; it has richly blessed my life!

I took a World Views class from Tracy about thirteen years ago. I still use what I learned in that class to evaluate different philosophies! I appreciate having words to help me identify which belief system different thoughts and ideas belong to. 

You know those people who seem to get twice as much done as other people? That's Tracy. She organizes large events and programs in many different categories (homeschool co-ops and learning events, a gymnastics program, and a yearly swim camp, just to name a few!). She is extremely organized and capable - and often does this all while going through intense personal challenges. I stand in awe. 

Tracy has a kind heart and deep faith. I appreciate her ongoing influence on my life as a mentor and friend.

Tracy came and spoke at a women’s activity I organized. I knew I wanted Tracy to speak to these women because of her experience and because she is so inspiring. She did not disappoint! She was prepared and her delivery was amazing. She definitely touched hearts that night. She lead us through a thought exercise that prepared us for her message. It made it more personal and opened our hearts to the possibilities. In the following days and weeks I heard many comments about Tracy's speech and her ideas came up in the following weeks’ lessons.

I met Tracy over twenty years ago at the beginning of my homeschool journey. She started a colloquia (book discussion group) that she has headed up all this time, which has been life-altering for my family. Tracy has an amazing memory and ability to draw out life lessons from the books we've read through the years.

If I were to describe Tracy with one word, that word is passion. She has passion in everything she does, thinks, and creates. And create she does in a huge way: iFamily Leadership Academy, Swim Camp, theater excursions, Family Camp, WUBA, Worldviews, Grit, Math Alive, and many more classes. People sense her passion and want to ride the wave with her. She is a fabulous mentor and sincerely loves youth, parents, and children. Tracy has played a huge role in my growth as a person, mother, mentor, wife, and community member.

Tracy will help you reach the stars.

I had the pleasure of taking a class from Tracy. The only downside was that there was never enough time for us to find out everything there was to learn from her. She presented ideas in an applicable way that also inspired and showed the importance of the subject matter. I could tell she was there not only to teach concepts, but with a greater purpose: to help the students realize their true potential and appreciate their own views in a comprehensive way.

I have had the opportunity to take a couple of classes mentored by Tracy. The most recent being her Worldviews course.  Her guidance as a mentor was invaluable in helping me to understand the diverse perspectives we studied. Her knowledge of the different worldviews and her ability to navigate complex ideologies, as well as her ability to foster meaningful discussions, created an enriching learning environment.

The worldview course included the study of the six worldviews of Christianity, Islam, New Spirituality, Secularism, Marxism, and Postmodernism across the 10 disciplines of Theology, Philosophy, Ethics, Biology, Psychology, Sociology, Law, Politics, Economics, and History. Interwoven amongst these worldviews and disciplines we also discussed Mortimer Adler’s Six Great Ideas. Her depth of knowledge across the various worldviews and throughout the studied disciplines provided a comprehensive exploration. Each time we met she had some interesting resources to ignite our interest and encourage critical thinking and discussion. For each topic she would also have many more resources to suggest or recommend for us to explore further, other books to read, videos to watch, etc. Tracy was very passionate and enthusiastic about the topics we discussed, which always inspired me to want to learn more for myself.

As the mentor of our worldviews course, Tracy not only imparted her knowledge, but she also instilled in me a deeper appreciation for the different worldviews we studied. At the same time, she inspired a greater insight into the great ideas of truth, goodness, beauty, justice, liberty, and equality, giving me an understanding of these ideas that I had not had previously. Her passion, expertise, and dedication to fostering intellectual growth have left a lasting impression on me. I highly recommend Tracy as a mentor to anyone embarking on a journey of exploring worldviews or any of the other topics of which Tracy has expertise and is offering a mentorship.
