I have never enjoyed (professional development) or gained as much as I did when I saw you…You made a profound impression on me that day. I don’t know if it was your humor, your approach as a teacher rather than a speaker, or your magic tricks, but I was captivated.
As an administrator, I loved your presentation. We will be incorporating many of your points into our beginning year staff meeting…Thank you for your positivity and optimism in a world which is lacking those!
I want you to know that listening to your presentation was refreshing and empowering. I admire anyone with a sense of humor, what a wonderful gift! Your knowledge and experience combined with your entertaining and moving stories renewed my commitment to my students.
