Jim Ewing is a tremendous presenter who is extremely dedicated to improving teaching and learning. Jim’s training is engaging, fun, practical, and easy to implement immediately. His professional style and knowledge base speak to educators and students alike. I highly recommend him – you will not be disappointed.
