Do You Want Your Teachers To Know How To Inspire Students To Do Their Best Without Burning Themselves Out?
 
 

I've been a classroom teacher since 1982, and I've been on the "Net" since 1993.

In 1998 I wrote the best selling teacher Internet resource book "The Busy Educator's Guide To The World Wide Web" and started "The Busy Educator's Newsletter". I've seen, read, and reviewed thousands of websites.

I also write a column for Teach magazine, regularly submit book reviews to VOICE and Professionally Speaking teacher magazines, present workshops and keynotes.

Along the way I also received a number of teacher awards:

  • The Roberta Bondar (first Canadian female astronaut) Award for Science and Technology.
  • The NORTEL National Institute Award for Excellence in Teaching.
  • Selected to participate in 3 NORTEL Summer Teacher Institutes.
  • The Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Teaching Mathematics, Science and Technology.
  • The Roy C. Hill Award for Educational Innovation.
  • A Certificate of Merit from TVO (Canadian equivalent to PBS)

I'm not telling you this to impress you... I'm just telling you this to PROVE that I know what I'm talking about. You won't be disappointed with "The Busy Educator's Newsletter" As a classroom teacher, I know your time is valuable.

I am a successful author, having two of my books published as bestsellers. The foreword to my second book The Busy Educator’s Guide To The World Wide Web 2ND Edition was written by Harry K. Wong, who with his wife Rosemary, are the authors of The First Days of School, which has sold over 2 million copies.

Harry and Rosemary have given me a credit in their latest book as an acknowledged expert. They even put a photo of me and my children on their front cover!
