Comments about Jerry Mills:
“Wow! I have never, in my 30+ years in education, experienced a program which so clearly depicts the needs of a young person and then so clearly provides the tools and ideas for what we can do for that child!”
Joe Coyner, Education Professor
MI CSPD
Eastern Michigan University
“You have touched the hearts and minds of many people! I can’t say enough about how you’ve helped support our efforts… Anyone who lives and works with children at risk should experience your work. I recommend your work to any and all communities so they too can experience your powerful message.”
Roberta Opheim
Ombudsman Mental Health
State of Minnesota
“This was funny, touching, relevant and very much needed – especially the strategies. Please come back to this area. We have many more teachers who need to hear this great message from one of their own – a teacher!”
Glen Riswold, At Risk Coordinator
Brooklyn, NY

Jerry Mills is a nationally recognized educator, singer/songwriter and motivational trainer. As a child he experienced the “failures, fears and frustrations” of some nameless problem. These experiences would lead him to pursue a career as a teacher. It was while teaching that Jerry discovered the real cause of his life-long struggles with learning. It was a discovery that would change his life and the lives of many others. Today, Jerry presents educational workshops and training full time. He is regularly featured in a wide range of state and national conferences.
A talented and prolific songwriter and storyteller, his work vividly captures a broad range of human experiences and emotional encounters with the challenges of life. Jerry has become a leader in the effort to train and educate teachers, parents and anyone who works with challenged youth.
More than just workshops. Training and strategies that really work.
To teach. Inspire. Motivate. Understand. These are things you want every person in your program to do. To the very best of their ability. Everyday. With every student. Helping them get there; helping them find the right strategies, giving them the right tools is really what it’s all about.
The awesome challenge of creating positive outcomes for every kid in every classroom – whether “Gifted” or “At Risk;” whether “Learning Disabled,” “Challenged” or “ADD” – creates a compelling need for training that inspires your staff to reach deep inside and find their very best. It requires effective tools and strategies for teachers, parents and students themselves.
Few things provide this like the workshops and presentations of classroom teacher and singer/songwriter Jerry Mills. No other programs impact teachers, parents and students in such a profound way. And few programs produce such tremendous change.
