Long Description:
As an educator, have you ever wondered about students, “Why can’t she just control her behaviour?” or “Why did he do that?” The demands of the classroom, and the scrutiny of teachers, often leave little time for teachers to consider the complex needs of children experiencing traumatic stress. Drawing on their lived experience and professional expertise, the conversations with trauma-informed education experts in this unique book offer educators an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the needs of students and strategies for responding with compassion and empathy. In a time of rapidly emerging scientific discovery, and social and political challenges, this book encourages educational leaders to question the fundamental assumptions of dominant pedagogical practices and sets the foundations for innovation in education.

“Be positive. Be unique. Be different.” – Herb Silverman

In this E-book, Unmistakably Herb, Herb Silverman believes that we can construct the capability of achieving anything we want, any purpose that is meaningful, anything objective imaginable if one can try to succeed. The energy to make everything possible is all up to the individual to be better than one was before.

More than that, experiencing a massive stroke at the age of 27 that affected Herb’s entire right side and his ability to speak initially, Herb understands firsthand the unexpected events life can bring. (Trust him on this…)

Hence, Unmistakably Herb’s e-book is divided into five-parts: adaptability, leadership, productivity, salesmanship, and humor, to provoked ideas and eye-opening outcomes for work and personal targets.
