TESTIMONIALS
What Our Students Say
I was lucky enough to try out some techniques with a year eight girl today and I felt 100% more confident speaking to a young girl who has been reluctant to open up to anybody and has been in and out of hospital over the past month. Before I knew it 45 minutes had passed and I had said barely anything. The student said “it was nice to actually talk and not be lectured”.
Very powerful tools rocky!!! Cheers.
Thank you for the Conscious Classroom Management Training workshop. So happy to know I can be myself and establish teacher presence that is me.
Excellent practical strategies to use with a variety of steps and structures were presented at the Conscious Classroom Management Training workshop. The preventative strategies and what to say “communication script” were most useful.
A most excellent and productive workshop that gave me a new outlook towards classroom management.
This classroom management training reminded me of why I became a teacher. The skills were practical. Thank goodness for PD Days like this and people like you!
As Deputy Principal of a large primary school, I am often faced with situations where I need to provide guidance and support for students.
Having recently completed the course, I have already used many of the strategies back at school and now feel more confident and well-equipped to deal with student issues.
The course was practical, action-packed and opened my mind to the many ways we can speak with and support students. I now feel better-equipped to manage the “difficult conversations” when my school counsellor isn’t on site. The added bonus is that many of the strategies will prove effective in my personal life as well.
Thanks Rocky! I will definitely be recommending the course to my staff.
This classroom management training provided new insights and ideas. The focus on teacher presence is valuable if not challenging.
