Course material will focus on leadership styles, goal-setting guidelines, performance feedback, teacher-coach-parent relationships, communication with students/athletes and mental training techniques designed to help individuals achieve peak performance. Discussions will also include the “other things” that teachers and coaches deal with daily that are rarely mentioned in other graduate level classes. Class activities will involve guest speakers, group discussions in which students are encouraged to share their own personal experiences, as well as videotapes featuring some of the top speakers in the nation on mental training and teaching/coaching excellence. By the end of this unique course each participant will leave feeling revitalized, better prepared to deal with the common problems that teachers and coaches face, and return home with a wide variety of new ideas and tools to help improve their teaching/coaching skills. This class is a must for teachers and coaches at all levels!!! In this course you will discover highly practical and ready-to-use strategies for increasing your success and enjoyment as a leader of today’s youth.

Regardless of how many years you’ve been a parent, a teacher, and/or a coach, you can gain valuable information by participating in this course. Whether our day ends when the bell rings or we participate in coaching students, we can always find someone or something which can inspire us to do a better job – this is the something. So much information is compacted into five days, this is the perfect way to gain those professional hours!

Best grad class I’ve taken… the information and topics covered from peers and the instructor along with their suggestions and experiences was great… I came away from this class with REAL tools/ideas that can be used immediately in my work environment.

This was the best graduate course I have taken. The materials used and the methods of presentation were very stimulating. I have taught and coached for 31 years. This course needs to be given in some form to 1st year teachers and coaches. The ideas and passion of the speakers, videos, other students, and instructors are invaluable to estimate. This course has rejuvenated me for the rest of my educational life. This course is about caring, motivating and inspiring our students. It would be a tremendous boost to anyone involved in education. I believe Superintendents, school board members, and other peripheral individuals should take this course.
