Building Success. Building Relationships

It takes time and commitment to succeed. I believe in building relationships with every school.

James has been supporting, guiding, mentoring and inspiring myself, and my school to achieve great success with Habits of Mind since our journey began in 2006

Working with James over the last six years has allowed us to grow our understanding of the Habits and how they support student learning across all areas of our school.

Thank you James for always supporting us and for being there in every way that you can. It's greatly appreciated. We couldn't have done it without you.

James is an extraordinary presenter. He engages his audience, provides a powerful set of activities, and has such deep knowledge of the theory as well as the practice that people leave inspired to move forward. He has contributed to our field immeasurably and Art and I are grateful for his continuous dedication to being our "critical friend.'

James Anderson presented a workshop on Habits of Mind for our entire academic staff of 90 teachers. An aspect that was truly appreciated by the staff was the practical wisdom he imparted – clearly gained from hands-on classroom experience. The unsolicited feedback we received from the staff was extremely positive and we have little doubt that he will have persuaded everyone to reflect carefully on their teaching.

There is nothing more satisfying than having staff return from having completed professional developing simply raving over it. Our staff have always come back from James' training very keen to implement his great ideas. They all comment on his excellent teaching/training approach and they have come back armed with some great resources. I have no doubt that the attendance at James's training has led to high quality understanding of Habits of Mind.
