This was the most informative and uplifting seminars I have ever attended. Simply phenomenal!
—Special Ed High School Teacher, Colts Neck, NJ
I am a new substitute teacher and I was brought up to believe in an old authoritarian, demeaning form of discipline. Dr. Bluestein presented some concepts which were entirely new to me. This session was truly an eye-opener. If I had had Dr. Bluestein as a teacher, I would have had a wholly different and enjoyable experience at school.

Jane made me feel at ease from the start of the seminar. She opened my eyes to many new ideas.

One of the best workshops I ever attended—and I’ve been teaching a long time!!
—Resource Specialist, Elementary, Waterford, NJ
I’m so glad she gave me the “power” to stop being a disciplinarian and start being a caring teacher who will earn respect, not demand it from my students. I can’t wait to get to school tomorrow to try these ideas out!
—Special Ed Middle School Teacher, Fanwood, NJ
Great presentation! Energetic, informative. I intend to apply all these new ideas in my classroom immediately, and I know the results will be only positive.
—Special Ed Elementary Teacher, Sunland Park, NM
One week later, I am still hearing comments about your presentation. Words like “inspiring,” “passionate,” and “real” frequently appear in these comments. Without a doubt, you have touched the hearts of a diverse group of professionals, certainly the mark of a master speaker.
—Director of Special Education, Goshen, NY
All my life I went to school without one word of encouragement from my teachers. I never heard praise or a thank-you or you’re OK. I became a Special Ed teacher to give what I never received and all you have said is true. Thanks for such a positive day.
—Special Ed Middle School Teacher, Santa Teresa, NM
Dr. Bluestein provided fantastic, useful strategies in a humorous, energetic manner. This is one of the few conferences that truly was a great experience.
—Middle School Special Ed Teacher, Levittown, NY
The feedback from staff has been overwhelmingly positive. You are a very dynamic speaker and your classroom strategies are so useful for all disciplines working with our student population.
—Special Education Conference Coordinator, Goshen, NY
Excellent! Fantastic! Jane hit me right where I live. So many of her anecdotes brought tears to my eyes. I feel energized to go back to my classroom and try again.
—Special Ed Middle School Teacher, Amsterdam, NY
Loved her! What a compassionate lady. She simply radiated all day with her sense of humor and expertise! This was an extremely productive day for me.
—High School Special Ed Teacher, Vernon, NY
Since your outstanding talk last March, I have already received requests as to when you might return. You really made this a real “win-win” situation for all of us. Thank you. You were great!

Thank you for helping make our Spring Conference most beneficial. There were nothing but compliments on the evaluations…
