Annette Breaux is the epitome of quality professional development! She is a dynamic presenter who provides proven, practical strategies for quality teaching. We invite her back year after year! “Annette Breaux presented an incredibly wonderful and inspiring opening day in-service for all of our teachers and staff. She made an enormous impression on everyone who attended. I highly recommend her as a motivational speaker for any school district. “ It was delightful to have Annette Breaux come to our school district as the keynote speaker for the new school year. Her topic was "How to Impact Student Achievement and Make a Difference." Annette was an inspirational speaker who motivated our entire staff to approach this school year with a renewed sense of enthusiasm and pride. Professional staff members commented that Annette was the best-inservice presenter they have ever heard in their careers! We purchased her book, Seven Simple Secrets: What the Best Teachers Know and Do, to be placed in all of the professional libraries in each of our schools. Annette Breaux was the keynote speaker for a system-wide in-service day, kindergarten through twelfth grades certified staff. Her evaluations were extremely high - possibly the best we've ever had. I had more people contact me afterwards too about how much they gained from her presentation. It is all information that is very helpful and can be implemented the next day to help provide better learning environments and increase student achievement. She is very practical - her strategies and techniques speak to the classroom teacher! She is also very entertaining throughout the presentation and has sequences built in that command the listeners attention and involve him/her. I've heard Annette Breaux several times, and have personally always been impressed, which is why I worked so hard to get her to our district! Annette Breaux is an incredibly motivating speaker. She makes teachers laugh, she makes them reflect on their practices, and she inspires them to keep children at the heart of all they do. One of the best speakers I’ve ever heard! Our district has hired her year after year to train our new teachers and mentors. "Our members can't stop talking about your terrific presentation. Uplifting, great, wonderful, awesome, etc. are just a few of the adjectives administrators are using when speaking of your session." I noticed that there is not one negative comment. Awesome! I don’t have to tell you what a joy it was to hear it again and to sit and enjoy watching you work! You truly have a gift as an educator and I just wish I could reach half of your potential. We had a great opening today and I can directly attribute it to your work.
