Guide Conference

DB+

Guide Conference is a teacher training designed to take an entrepreneurial approach to education in the classroom.

Is this Conference for me?

What if your classroom was set up as a true partnership and you collaborated with your students to build expectations together?

As an educator, what if you could re-design your classroom approach in a way that your students expected to take ownership of their learning?

Or students were motivated by failure?

Or what if your students were helping you design the lessons they wanted to learn?

By participating in “Guide Conference,” we will lead you down a road to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit of purpose and passion.

The goal of this training is to equip you with the necessary mindset and skills to develop a classroom where entrepreneurship not only exists but can become the core of the student experience. Understanding your own philosophy, how to build the classroom environment, collaborate with students, and communicate your purpose is critical.

You’ll learn what Jack Sparrow has to do with changing how we approach teaching.
