Guy Doud was terrific! Exactly, what our folks needed in these trying times. He was dynamic and motivating. Only good comments on the evaluations. Thank you so much for all your help and support in setting this up. Dear Mr. Doud: On behalf of the teachers, paraprofessionals, and administrators of the Indian River School District, I would like to express our deepest appreciation for your visit on September 2. Many proclaimed the "Return to School Celebration" the best opening session in the history of the district! Your message motivated each member of the staff to embark on a new, challenging 1998-99 teaching journey, one which will provide passage for all students to a richer, more rewarding learning future. Thank you for sharing so much of your past and your passion. Indian River's spirits and determination to make a difference in student's lives have never been stronger. Dear Guy: What an outstanding presentation you made to our Association's Annual Convention in Pinehurst, North Carolina on September 29, 1998. You are the first speaker we have had to receive a standing ovation! Thank you for sharing your stories of teaching in such a wonderful way. Your ability to intertwine tragedy and humor was fantastic. Before the tears could trickle down the faces of our members, you had them laughing. What a technique you have developed to get the thrust of your message across to your audience. Again, Guy, thank you for being such an outstanding part of our program and please continue to "Mold Dreams." Guy Doud, he was absolutely amazing! He was the most touching and inspiring of our speakers and someone who effectively brought to light the reason educators choose this field. He had the audience laughing and crying. So many participants lined up to talk to him; to let him know just how personally he had touched them. Thank you to the BEST keynote speaker I have ever heard... He was the best part of my three days attending the conference. It would be a tremendous understatement to say Guy’s presentation was a huge success. The feedback I received was unanimously positive. His remarks were “spot on” for the occasion and very well received. He is a true delight!!! Thank you so much for steering me in his direction.
