About Ron
Since receiving his B.S in Ed. and M.A. from Clarion University (Pennsylvania) in 1974, Ron Nash's professional career has encompassed teaching at the middle and high school levels, as well as coordinating curriculum and facilitating professional development for instructional and classified employees of the Virginia Beach City Public Schools. He also spent eight years in educational sales and sales management before returning to teaching in 1988.

Ron's workshops are highly interactive and involve the use of music, movement, humor and storytelling as facilitators of learning. Over the past decade, Ron has trained thousands of teachers, teacher assistants, substitute teachers and administrators in such varied topics as presentation techniques, classroom management, relationship building, instructional strategies and process management. Ron has presented at regional, state and national conferences; including the Virginia Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (VASCD), the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD), the Virginia Staff Development Council (VSDC), and the National Staff Development Council (NSDC).

In his workshops, Ron models strategies that teachers can use immediately in the classroom. Plenty of opportunities are provided for teachers to share knowledge, compare experiences and process new information along the way. The emphasis is on practical instructional strategies that will, when employed, involve students in their own learning. Not coincidentally, these same strategies and techniques will also make the whole learning process more fun and more rewarding for the classroom teacher.
