About this title

About the Author

I love being an educator; I love administrators, teachers, and the children. The children, that's what it is all about. I found out early, as all teachers do, if you don't have the attention of the children in the class, they don't learn learn. How do you get it? That's what it is all about. I want to share my knowledge and experiences as a student, teacher, counselor, and educational administrator. I was a graduate student in England, Hawaii, Alabama, and Texas. I was fortunate in receiving a Fulbright Scholarship, which enabled me to study and travel for a summer in Israel. As a student living in these various places, I concurrently was employed in the various states. My husband was an officer with the U.S. Air Force and we traveled extensively in Europe and Japan, which explains my varied employment and schooling sites. I have trained children, teachers, counselors and administrators in numerous content areas during my years of employment in public school settings. My biggest success was in training teachers to change the behavior of children in their class, by training the teachers to change their own behavior. A teacher responding to her use of one of my techniques stated: "Last year I had a terrible class, this year, all the students are so well behaved". Enough said!! Roberta Silfen, Ed..D
