Event Description:
Don't Give up on That Kid!
With continuous mandated curriculum changes and the intense pressure to transform our schools, today’s educators often feel overwhelmed, burned-out, and constricted in their passion to teach. Many even find themselves questioning why they chose to become a teacher in the first place. In this program Nelson helps teachers recharge, refocus, take stock in themselves and their commitment to their students. In Nelson’s enlightening, inspirational and humorous program, he recognizes the incredible importance of the teacher in the front of the classroom.
Through this presentation Nelson offers a unique “real world” glimpse into the mind and the gut of that “problem” kid, and proves that success can come from even the most unlikely student. Nelson challenges his audience to become “the story”… the story that will be told by your students 10, 20, even 30 years from now of the teacher who reached out and opened their mind when no one else would or could
Until age 29, Nelson Lauver was functionally illiterate as a result of
undiagnosed dyslexia. Now he is the inspirational author of the book, Most Unlikely to Succeed. |
