You're very welcome, and I'm glad you're finding him helpful. The thanks really go to my wife, who is the one in our family who discovered him. She has read a lot more of his stuff than I have; I get it mostly from discussion with her. So I'll pass the thanks on one more stage to where they really belong.
If you can persuade your district to send you to his six day workshop, I think you will find it truly exciting. The program -- I forget what he calls it, but it's really an expo sort of thing with lots of speakers that he does in San Antonio and maybe elsewhere -- P found nowhere near as good. The six day program is almost all Eric, and she found it fantastic. I went with her but didn't attend the program, just stayed in the hotel and vacationed, but I got enough bits and pieces hanging around and listening to her enthuse and talking with the other participants during breaks, dinner, etc. to wish I had signed up for it myself. Since it was advertised as being for teachers I didn't think it would be that helpful to me, but there is a lot there that's of real use by a trial lawyer.
Anyhow, if you get a chance to go to his six day workshop, I strongly recommend that you grab it. |
