Other Testimonials
“Ann is an enthusiastic presenter and interested in the participants. We learned so much from her today! I liked how you reviewed learning styles and how to accommodate them!”
“Thank you, Ann for bringing me back to the reasons I went into this profession. These may seem like ‘the basics’ but even teachers need to make their roots stronger. As a result of today I will go to my classroom with passion again.”
“I am going to try and praise children more and try to reach the children who are often missed. As an educator I needed this great “tune-up!” Ann you were an awesome presenter!”
“Ann has made me more excited and confident to implement social skills in my classroom. I can’t wait to hear Ann tomorrow and what she will bring. I am so appreciative that I took this class.”
“I learned from Ann’s training that I have a tendency to be passive aggressive in conflict situations with students. I feel I can now be calm and effectively communicate to students who have emotional needs.”
“The information about learning disabilities Ann shared was enlightening along with what we learned about autism and Aspergers! I will now slow down the question and answer pacing of my class and look at children with disabilities in a more sympathetic way.”
“I hope to provide more assistance to students with Asperger’s. I learned to see what is beneath a student’s apparent behaviors and the concept of rage, rumbling and recovery.”
“I think it is wonderful on how practical the information is presented. You have a special way of connecting with your audience, Ann! Thank you!”
