Education:
“I liked everything
we talked about. You brought concepts and strategies that are already
within us out. You demonstrated how to pull it from within. Super – I
loved this workshop.”
-Susan Robbins- Social Worker, Randolph County Schools, NC
“One thing I understand better from today’s workshop is that I don’t
have to answer all the questions, solve all the problems. I just need to
show students I care, build a relationship and ask questions.
-Teacher-Winston-Salem, Forsyth County Schools
“I have been stuck in the “doing” and have forgotten to be! I see the
opportunity.”
-Assistant Principle -Evansville City Schools, Evansville, Ind.
“Perceptual Control Theory is the glue that holds together many
strategies in how to teach and keep myself in balance.”
-Luzdary Sanchez-Teacher Assistant, Forest Park Elementary,
Winton-Salem, NC
“As to answer the question, "Why learn PCT," I think that the biggest
reason is that is works. You are probably familiar with the search for a
grand unification theory in physics, a law or set of laws and equations
that merges Newtonian & Einsteining physics (physics of the big) with
quantum physics (physics of the small). PCT is the grand unification
theory for psychological principals. Knowing this theory helps to
explain all other theories. Moreover, understanding the theory helps me
as a teacher/wife/daughter/person understand how my actions affect
another person, or at the very least it changes my perspective on what I
have control over and what I do not. In the end, I think it builds
empathy. By letting go of the notion that I have no ability to control
another person, I feel free from that responsibility. In the end, I am a
happier more balanced person after learning PCT."
