After years of practical usage, Tammy-Anne Caldwell formalised her practices of combining an understanding of how the brain works with the ways in which we teach. She goes by the professional nickname of the 'Mind-Brain Lady' and is on a mission to help educators, parents and children better engage in the learning process According to the statistics, she should have failed school and be unemployed, but instead she is a social entrepreneur, a business owner, a teacher, consultant & motivational presenter, and a social-emotional trainer & co-author.
After her first job as an educator at age 19, she became a qualified teacher, a decade ago and has taught at schools, homes, organisations and universities across Australia & New Zealand. She was a 2020 semi-finalist in the Western Australian Regional Achievement/Curtin Teaching Excellence Awards, and received Government funding to share her brain-based workshops at regional schools. She was the only Australian to receive one of 28 grants from the International Brain Research Organisation in Paris, in 2021 - and a second grant in 2022. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
