ROBERT JACKSON
Hello
I'm Robert Jackson
INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER/AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR
My motto is, "For every problem, there is a solution." I began my teaching career 28 years ago in Indianapolis Public Schools after being cut from the NFL Minnesota Vikings. I have always had a No More Excuses teaching approach with all of my students. I set high expectations for students, educators and parents by teaching and coaching them how to use their circumstances as steppingstones into their futures...
Mr. Jackson, thanks for being our Keynote speaker. You are the ultimate professional and you are very passionate about your work. Your presentation style is engaging and motivating - you have a unique ability to connect with your audience. After listening to you, my staff was ready to start the school year with the right mindset. Thanks for helping us to "set the tone" for what has been a very good school year.

Mr. Robert Jackson empowered my entire faculty and staff through professional development, and most importantly, my elementary scholars. His presentations allowed for awareness that we have a problem, that we can make a difference, and unequivocally emphasized, ‘No More Excuses’, as he shared the solution(s). His message was thought provoking, mind changing, and left us with real strategies, equipping us with the necessary tools to make an impact on our youth!

Thank you so very much for what I believe was the best 90 minutes in professional development I can ever remember. I went in to my class completely re-energized and ready to motivate and connect with my kids! It was wonderful to be so inspired. Truly lucky to have been a part of it!

I just wanted to express my gratitude for your impactful book, "Becoming The Educator They Need." As a reading teacher at a local elementary school, I don't typically enjoy reading, but your book truly captivated me. It was recommended to me when I joined the equity team at my school, and it was eye-opening for both myself and my colleagues. Your words emphasized the importance of being mindful of our language as educators, as words can have a lasting impact on our students. Your message about providing encouragement and support to all students resonated with me, especially as a teacher of color facing stereotypes and stigma. Your book has inspired me to continue advocating for students of color and being a positive force in their academic journeys. Unfortunately, they didn't let us keep your book because if they did it would be on the top of my shelf. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and experience with the world.
