Former Participants are saying:
I attended this seminar in London at the Best Western on Wellington Street. This seminar was undoubtedly the best seminar I have ever attended.
Mr Bedley was well prepared and obviously experienced, both in presenting and dealing with difficult children. There was not one wasted moment and every word was a pearl.
He spoke about giving kids character lessons for life. He had a myriad of techniques to follow up this suggestion such as the Attitude Umbrella, Zip Lock goal setting, Responsibility Microphone and dozens of other strategies!
He spoke about kids needing reminders more than they needed to be informed and explained procedures using verbal and non-verbal techniques to achieve that goal.
Gene demonstrated how "language is the mediator of all behavior" by providing "a place and a process" for children to become problem solvers. He gave us the procedures for setting up the Talking It Over Chair, the Anger Tree and the Better Choice Chair to facilitate that process.
There was so much more, I could go on and on. Thank you for this opportunity to take this seminar.
