The Gifted Self: Developing Effective Self-concept in Gifted Students
Healthy, effective self-concept promotes achievement and life satisfaction.
Telling kids they’re smart and/or pretty is the entirely wrong way to go
about creating this. This engaging workshop focuses on specific,
research-proven tools that build self-confidence and self-concept in
learners. RSVP Today! ppagsmail@gmail.com
When: Wednesday September 21, 6:30-7:30pm

I'm Lisa Van Gemert, the Gifted Guru. I’m an educator by training, and I’m a Giftedland
native – I was a gifted student, I’ve raised three gifted kids, and I’ve taught gifted students.
The gifted trifecta! I’ve been a teacher, a school administrator, a homeschooling mom, a
paralegal, an Army Intelligence Analyst (yep), and a cheerleader. Not in that order. Join me
Sept 21 in Colorado Springs.
