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.
Results from the classroom
Classroom teachers and school leaders describe what changed after the training.
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.
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.
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.
All the concepts and ideas presented were logical, practical, and had the best interest of all students in mind. I really enjoyed the day and have a new outlook on classroom management. I recommend this to anyone who works with children.
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.
The strategies for the out-of-control student alone were worth the day. I walked in skeptical and walked out with a system I've used every week since.
The classroom management seminar was one of the most immediately useful workshops I've ever taken. Even after twenty years in the classroom.
