Warm, witty, and honest, Nancy Coey has the unique ability to see the extra-ordinary in the ordinary. With her conversational style and common-sense content, audiences come away feeling that she has spoken directly to them.
Nancy developed her keen eyesight from more than twenty years of teaching the Dreaded Freshman English. (Nancy taught both writing and public speaking at Ohio State University, the University of Hawaii, and North Carolina State University, and her work has been highlighted on the PBS series, "Excellence in Teaching"). In helping students "train their eyes," Nancy trained her own. As a result, her programs are filled with original material – material you will hear nowhere else.
In ten years as a motivational keynote speaker, Nancy has built a reputation for original and memorable stories. Her presentation for the National Speakers Association, "Creating Memorable Material," was the Atlanta Workshop’s #1 best-selling tape.
Nancy writes the way she speaks. Her book, "Finding Gifts in Everyday Life," a collection of true stories from her own life, is in its 4th printing and is a B. Dalton "Book of the Week." Nancy and her husband, Don, have been married for thirty years and have two grown sons. They have traded in the folding chairs they used to carry from soccer to football to baseball fields and now spend time watching deer eat the green things they had so lovingly planted in their backyard.
â–ºCelebrating the Difference You Make!
Spirited and highly customized, this inspirational keynote offers teachers a concrete roadmap for classroom success. Nancy was a teacher for 28 years and, by necessity, "trained her eyes" to make each year as exciting as the first. With humor and fast-paced, real-life, relevant examples, you will learn proven strategies to "see" opportunities, and to re-connect with the reason you chose teaching as your profession. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll come away with an energized, real plan for the new school year.
