Feedback:
"Jim Gomes is a true inspiration to the Bachelor of Education students in Windsor. His presentation was a clear reflection of his book and was very informative. Many of the concepts he touched upon represent struggles that teachers deal with constantly. His humour and love of teaching shone throughout his presentation." (Morgan... B.Ed. student)
"Jim Gomes was a great speaker. He had everyone intrigued and he really knew what he was talking about. Jim allowed the class to voice their opinions, showed some great apps for teaching, and spoke with great passion about the teaching profession. It was a nice visit for our classroom and I'm looking forward to reading his book!" (Inessa... B.Ed. student)
"The presentation was enjoyed by all and dialogue continued for some time after." (Professor Park)
