If You Like Tom Jackson’s Books

You’ll Love Hearing Him In Person!

That’s right, wouldn’t it be great to have Tom come to your school, community or conference and share with you his creative, yet practical hands-on activities? Tom’s activities have been described by teachers and others who work with children and youth as "Simply the best life skill activities I have ever used! They teach life skills in such a way that kids not only learn, but love doing them." Or you can broaden the topic by having Tom talk about active learning as a teaching tool which can energize any classroom or program. PTA, parent and community groups can also benefit from activities that help build family values and successful kids.

Tom uses his "learn by doing" approach to walk you through a number of activities from his books.  Here is a chance to ask questions, get insider tips and learn first hand how to process and discuss the activities with your kids. Hundreds of teachers, counselors, youth workers, and parents have participated in Tom’s workshops and one of the most common remarks is "I wish we had more time. This is the most useful workshop I have ever attended." All of Tom’s presentations use a hands-on approach. You won’t find any of his presentations to be of the "sit and soak" variety. He believes in involving the audience with an entertaining and interactive delivery that has delighted audiences across the county. The most common comment after one of Tom’s presentations is "We want more, when can we have Tom back again?"

Who should attend one of Tom’s presentations? Everyone will benefit from his information about using active learning to energize their own classrooms, lesson plans and any other time spent with children and youth. Here is just a partial list of those who would benefit from the information which specifically addresses life skills training: elementary teachers, secondary teachers (especially those who work in the fields of health, home economics, physical education, adult roles, psychology, advisory period, careers, character education and others who teach life skills), counselors, prevention workers, violence/gang workers, student assistance staff, conflict mediation, nurses, Title I staff, at risk/high risk programs, after school programs, enrichment programs, and others who address life skills.
