Rave Reviews

Don's seminars routinely receive excellent reviews from attendees. If you have just attended a live workshop or listened to the audio program, please e-mail us your comments to Don@KangarooMethod.com.

Here are a few highlights....

From a student...
"The day after taking the "Advanced Power Learning Workshop" I took a Spanish exam. While reading a lengthy paragraph about health and nutrition in Spanish, I found myself drifting off. I proceeded to go back in the paragraph, and using some of the techniques I learned the day before, I was able to ace the section!"



From a school administrator...
"This has been the fastest 3 hours ever! Every one of our students should have this information!"

From a workshop attendee...
"I'm now a power learner! I know I can apply these techniques."

From a reading professor...
"Don Woodruff's Kangaroo Method is decidedly timely. His method for analyzing where communication breaks down is essential in our world of fast-paced communication."                    - Gerald L. Begy, Ph.D.

"On behalf of the Rochester City School District I would like to thank you for the in-service you provided for our teachers. The presentations were very informative and the teachers took back practical applications, useful in their subject areas and grade levels. The techniques can be incorporated into daily lessons as well as professional growth. Your presentation style and enthusiasm left quite an impression on us. Again, thank you for a superb job."                                                                - Michael Chan, Director

"Such an enjoyable and informative presentation you gave to our Succeeding At Work group here at LifeChoice. Your time with us went by much too quickly.  I could not believe the motivational impact you had on the participants. I am certain many of them left the room filled with the hope that learning is within their grasp. We hope your schedule allows for a return visit in the near future."
                                                                                                                 - Barbara A. Burkhardt, C.S.W.

"The adult education professionals who attended your program rated this program as being highly useful and gave you, as the presenter, an 'excellent' for your skill in teaching the material. Participants gave high praise to this program. Some examples:

    * 'This was information that I can actually use -- I see myself doing this!'
    * 'Simple, straightforward, excellent examples.'
    * 'I will use it everyday'

Thank you so very much for your enthusiasm and expertise. We look forward to working with you again in the future."                                                                                 - Patricia Pavelsky, Consortium Director
