A few comments from past participants:
The Cowboy Solution brought a perfect message to our teachers and administrators for the beginning of a new school year, "get to know your students, establish a relationship with them, then you will be able to teach them." Don Hutson brought back the reason to our hearts and minds of "why" we teach. It was an outstanding day of Staff Development. Susie Grider; Rains ISD
I really made a successful effort at changing my tone and approach today. I also made an effort to compliment students and go beyond my normal remarks to make studnets feel good. I ALREADY saw a difference with my class today. I hope you reach tons of teachers and administrators because what YOU are doing WORKS!
Barbara Payne; Lynn Lucas Middle School
All I can say is "Wow!" This is the most effective staff development I have ever been involved with. Teachers ARE using these principles and they are making a difference with our students. I can't thank you enough. I hope we can do this again.
Kevin Parker; Director of CATE; Goose Creek ISD
Any time you can give teachers a different perspective on the classroom and the school environment--it's a good thing....Since you shared your philosophy with us in Jacksonville, my week has been better and the kids have behaved and learned something! Thanks for giving me a valuable learning experience!
Marie Styron, Special Ed. teacher (29 years), Jacksonville Middle School
Once again I want to thank you for doing such a tremendous job in speaking to the new teachers. From watching their faces I could see that they were agreeing with everything you said. What you have to share is very powerful and I know that they will take it to heart; I have!
Susan Green, Instructional Officer Professional Development, Klein ISD
I don't know how anyone could not have come away with a better understanding of the responsibility teachers have to their students. While your presentation was most entertaining, you really helped us focus on some simple ideas that could make "a mighty big" difference in the lives and education of kids. Thanks.
Loma Dudley, Jacksonville Middle School
I had a bunch of my teachers say that was one of the best staff-development presentations they had attended. The fresh approach that you gave was wonderful and the "putting it all together" was a treat. You did a great job. I believe your presentation was unique compared to all the presentations/workshops that I have experienced in my 31 years of education. If you need any references, please do not hesitate to use my name.
