Dr. Michael Thompson at IC

Dr. Michael Thompson, well known American author, consultant, and psychologist specializing in children and families, presented a series of lectures to parents, administrators, and teachers in April. His presentations concentrated on entertaining yet informative lectures dealing with child behavior and how parents, teachers and administrators can help students succeed. He offered a morning session for administrators and counselors using case studies to look at normal and abnormal behavior. He presented useful guidelines to help the counselors interpret and deal with each of them. This session was followed by a session for parents entitled “The Pressured Child” with time set aside for questions and answers and another one for teachers who attended an interactive presentation on some of the challenges they face at school.
