Testimonials
Kathy Hanawalt, Instructional Coach Lincoln High School, Tacoma
In his work as a music teacher, Peter creates a space where each and every student makes meaningful growth in a way that develops their sense of belonging and self-efficacy. In his work with adult learners, Peter clearly articulates the theory behind the actions he lives out in the classroom every day and provides structures for teachers to integrate that theory back into their own practice.
Dr. Patty Bourne, Coordinator of Music Ed. Western Washington University
As a veteran educator of 40+ years, and as a current teacher of future teachers, I can think of few colleagues who inspire me the way Peter Briggs does. His manner, professionalism, reality-based insights, his “story”, are uplifting, motivating, and help me revisit all that I’ve loved about being a teacher.
Middle School Music Teacher
Peter is a phenomenal educator with philosophies that will live on for the betterment of our students and teachers. His instruction provides a realistic and compassionate approach for those in low demographic schools (and everywhere), giving you tools and thought processes that you can use to shape a personal and reformative look at your teaching, and your relationship to your students. Highly recommend this workshop!

Best PD EVER! Seriously, I loved the positivity, the amazing tools, the immediate application, the emphasis on self-care & love of the profession and our students… I could go on and on. I hope you do many more of these.
Middle School Teacher
I attended Peter’s workshop last spring and came away with so many things to implement in my classroom. Peter’s presentation was insightful and inspiring and just what I needed to make it through the end of the year. I look forward to learning more from him in the future!
