Attention teachers, parents, tutors and others interested in motivating & helping those who struggle to learn!

World-renowned Learning Disabilities expert, Rick Lavoie, will speak in Oklahoma City on April 6th, 2010.

Payne Education Center will host the Lavoie seminar at:
Crossings Community Center
2208 W. Hefner Road, OKC

Rick authored the book, It's So Much Work to Be Your Friend.

His newest book and PBS DVD on student motivation, The Motivation Breakthrough: Secrets to Turning On the Tuned-Out Child (Book and DVD Bundle), were released in 2007 and were featured in USA Today.

After viewing Rick’s videos, former First Lady Barbara Bush stated,

"You really wowed us! I only wish that every parent and teacher in the United States today could also see your program."

Ginny Little, Retired Head of School, Oak Hall Episcopal School, Ardmore, OK, said,

“I am privileged to have enjoyed seven of Rick Lavoie’s presentations, and each time I was deeply rejuvenated about teaching children. He shares his wonderful philosophies and experiences in a manner easily understood, and one comes away with ideas that can be easily implemented. Rick Lavoie is highly motivating, and attending his workshop is the perfect solution to staff development!”

Admission to the afternoon seminar is $25 per person and we will be handing out Professional Development forms for the 3 hours of attendance. (If you are a member of ALTA, they have approved 3 hours for CEU credits.)
