About the Authors

LeAnn Nickelsen, EdM, is an educator, coach, author, and trainer. She presents nationally and internationally on topics such as closing the gaps in high-poverty schools through differentiation strategies and evidence-based researched strategies; balanced literacy strategies and processes; and enhancing engagement, memory, and transfer in learning environments. She is known for delivering a wealth of information in an active, fun format with very specific, practical classroom examples. Participants leave with many ideas for maximizing learning for all students.

LeAnn believes that training is not enough for teachers to implement high effect size tools and strategies. Coaching is needed to bring full transfer from trainings, and she works with teachers one-to-one and in small groups to help them achieve their educational goals. She is a parent of college-age twins and applies the research to the hardest jobs out there—parenting and teaching.

LeAnn earned a master’s degree in educational administration from the University of North Texas.
