Classroom teachers and school leaders describe what changed after the training.
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.
The classroom management seminar was one of the most immediately useful workshops I've ever taken. Even after twenty years in the classroom.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
