"After 33 years working with young children, I thought I knew everything about how they learn, etc. Marianne Gibbs provided us with a multitude of effective strategies to use in our school. My teachers came away so excited. In fact, when I got to school the next morning before 8:00 there were several teachers in the classrooms implementing lots of her ideas. The experience was wonderful!"
