Presentations for Professional Development
Teaching is getting harder, not easier. This despite the fact that teachers have never been more educated, technology has never been more advanced, curriculum has never been so refined, and pedagogy has never been so honed. Although these factors are important, the true problem in schooling lies elsewhere. Using Dr. Neufeld’s approach, Colleen and Patti Drobot will discuss how educators can help children realize their potential through the power of relationship. They cover a variety of topics to help students flourish.

“On behalf of all of us here at Maddaugh, we thank you. Thank you for your passion, your wisdom, and your stories to help us make sense of resilience and anxiety. Your work continues to make important differences helping others make important differences in the lives of the children we work with and love. You made us think, but most importantly, you made us feel. ”
— Maddaugh Elementary Staff, Surrey, B.C.
“Their presentation was clear and well prepared devoid of unnecessary theory but filled with concrete examples, mostly related to their own children. Both sisters practice what they preach, which makes their parenting lessons all the more reliable. And the public reacted gratefully, soaking in the sisters’ childrearing recommendations and asking multiple questions. In the end of the two-hour presentation, nobody wanted to leave.”
— Leo Godim, The Jewish Tribute
“I was so moved by Patti and Colleen’s presentation. I had tears in my eyes several times. I was riveted with the material and found their examples and personal stories helped me greatly to make sense of Dr. Neufeld’s terms and concepts. I relayed what I learned to my husband and already it has made a difference in how we are approaching our two young children.”
— Mother of two children, ages 7 and 9
