I was going to retire this year. Tired of all the nonsense, tired of students who don't pay attention. This seminar has given me great ideas to put into my classroom. I think I'll be around a few more years. Thank you.
Educators on the training day

I am a student teacher, and today was my first day on the job. I couldn't think of a more valuable thing to learn at the beginning of a stressful time in my own education. Thank you.
After thirty years in the profession, I thought I'd seen every classroom management PD. This was different. Real strategies, real respect for the work we do, and real results in my room within a week.
If you are a true teacher, this program is what you believe in. These programs and strategies are designed to bring instant student motivation and engagement back into the classroom.
My students are now engaged in ways I couldn't have imagined six months ago. The storytelling and randomization techniques alone changed my entire approach to lesson planning.
Practical, immediate, and grounded in real classrooms. My team left with strategies they were using on Monday morning. Best engagement-focused PD we've ever brought in.
I had previously worked with my teachers to implement engagement strategies, but they had to go back, put things together, and come up with their own approaches. This program is different. When the teacher leaves the training, they're able to implement these strategies in their classrooms the next day.
This was the best logical presentation on discipline I've had in twenty-three years of teaching. I have practical ideas I can use immediately.
