Curriculum Design Help & Coaching

15


15 per hour - Virtual OK - Posted Jan 17, 2018

I will help you brainstorm your class or workshop at any point in the process from brainstorming, developing to proofreading.

You may want to check our my tip sheet for brain based pedagogy for 5 simbi here: https://simbi.com/martin-dooley/brain-based-teaching-tips

My experience is pretty varied from one-on-one professional training in food service, languages & computer use to group orientation slide shows and conference presentations, occasional situations like an educational trivia game show, all often improvised out of necessity. Some modifying of canned curricula to things developed from scratch with preparation time or without. Topics have ranged from sex, STDs, emotional support, sustainability, social justice, anti-racism, disability, meditation, change advocacy.

Probably the two best things I can offer would be helping you think outside of your own context (outside the box) and helping to prevent people from getting bored (using brain research based tips for teaching).

Training & Qualifications


I have been a trainer my entire adult life and creating my own curricla for 30 years. I have hundreds of hours of time teaching, leading workshops, facilitating meetings in a wide variety of settings and topics.

I have a bachelors degree and have attended thousands of hours of classes, workshops & conference sessions.

I have taught at many retreat centers including Esalen.

Availability & Preferences


My schedule is pretty flexible especially more than a couple days out. You can book a time slot with me here in green: mbdo.youcanbookme.com

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

Reviews of Marty


Jan 22, 2018
Marty hooked me up with some fantastic brain hacks for helping me to finally get some long-delayed projects done! I have a habit of tripping over my o...wn feet and focussing on irrelevant details. Marty's ideas have me feeling uplifted, inspired, and able to "just do it." Looking forward to working with him again!show more

See the tone is his review versus mine? His message: “sorry again, I need more than a couple hours notice if you want to schedule tomorrow or after.... i 'm no longer available this afternoon. this have been overly comp,licated but we should be able to make it work. thanks marty” I followed directions and I did send my resume. After his message, I went to check and my resume was uploaded but didnt send and he never said anything until his review so kinda catty. So based on his review, he seems mean hearted- do not recommend.show more

He has a online calendar that said he was available but cancelled 3 times on me 😢. Never got to meet up with him. I have a tight schedule so when I s...chedule a time and he cancels it’s a huge inconvenience to me. But it’s okay! Hopefully it works out for someone else. I will keep looking for the well needed support. show more
