It’s been my great pleasure to speak at hundreds of events over the past fifteen years. I’ve facilitated training for groups of teachers in small workshops and large venues, spoken to parent groups, and to keynoted state conferences across the country.
I provide high-quality, engaging sessions that align with adult learning theory. Depending upon the format of the session, presentations may include interactive audience response, cooperative application, or reflection.
I offer high quality online courses teachers love. You can find out more information about online courses here.
I love in-person events. If you have an event you are holding, please tell me about your event to get started.
I facilitate synchronous virtual events for fully engaged teachers. Please tell me about your event to get started.
I offer dozens of options for sessions, and I’m sure we can find one that works for you.
If you have an event you would like me to facilitate, please tell me about it so we can design an event that works for you.
Please tell me about your event to get started!
In addition to event I facilitate in person and virtually, I have many options for online courses. These can be done by teachers at any time, rather than a set time.
For school districts, I offer inexpensive courses that are very flexible in implementation and design that teachers are obsessing over. Learn more.
I also offer (dozens of) courses through Responsive Learning. (Individual teachers can find out more here.)
