We have a new book...we're so excited!

I'm so excited to be announcing my new book, Educators are Amazing...Even Us! co written with Dr. Janet J Sawyer, or as most people call her Dr. JJ. I've been working with Dr. JJ now for many years and she has become a dear friend and colleague.

Recently Dr. JJ asked me to work with her to design resources for Educators, specifically paraprofessionals, student teachers and  volunteer parents working in the classroom and from there we decided to write a book.

That got me excited because I love working with adults that support and teach children. Dr. JJ is a retired principal with over 51 years experience in the education world. Currently she is a Virtual Adjunct Professor at a HBCU called Central State University in Wilberforce, OH. The best part is Dr. JJ is teaching in the same department she graduated from, the College of Education.

Now some of you might be thinking, "Well what's this book all about?" Good question. As I've mentioned the book as be written for Educators. However in saying that, I believe that anyone with children would benefit from reading it.  You see it will give tips and strategies for developing your People-literacy skills and for shaping character in children, not to mention yourself. 

Once you apply these tips and strategies you will start to see a more positive and empowering learning environment emerge. In today's world there are so many parents homeschooling their kids and this book would be a perfect resource for them. Here's a wee peek into what the book covers:

• What the Four DISC Personality Styles are.
• Tips for communicating more effectively in different situation with the four DISC styles. 
• How to adapt your style to get the best out of all your relationships, even those difficult ones! 
• Simple ways to create a culture of character in the classroom and at home.
• How to apply the Virtues Project Five Strategies.
• Activities for developing your self-awareness. 

The above is just a little of what you can read in the book, there's so much more! We have launched it through an EBook and you can grab a copy by clicking on this link: Educators are Amazing....Even Us!

Both Dr JJ and I would appreciate and love to hear your comments, once you have read and applied the tips and strategies from the book, so jump back on this Blog post and leave a comment.
