I have done a few of these techniques and my kids completely respond! AWESOME!

Tried it in my first session in the semester. I was so happy how my college students positively responded to the "class" "yes" and "ok". The tension was gone and they looked forward to the following sessions. Great!

Let me try this. I think this is amazing!

This is exactly what I need for my class. I'm a brand new teacher. I have learned tons in just 7 minutes. I love how it's so simple and how it forces you to have a clear lesson plan with easily identifiable objectives. I'm trying this on monday!

I am honored to have Biff as a colleague. I even team taught a course with him. The power teaching stuff really works. If you are hesitant about it, just try one little thing (e.g., the gestures) and notice the impact.

This is incredible, just what I was looking for. I know something was wrong in my classroom because I was boring MYSELF. This is engaging the students, with fun, with learning, and my goodness, it doesn't appear to involve weeks of planning and cheesy prizes.

This is just fantastic! My students respond positively in every way - great attitude, incredible attention, and big increases in concept retention. I never thought something so simple could make such a difference for my students.

Chris Biffle's stuff is awesome. It's all about engaging students and getting away from the endless lecture. By using this technique, teachers are able to check for understanding, modify instruction, and energize their classrooms! Way to go Chris!!

I love this technique. Especially for ADD kids who need high stimulation or for those who have Auditory Processing Disorder who need constant checks if they have processed the correct information.I am from Australia and will be pushing for this method in our school. Thank you soooo much! |
