What Readers Are Saying

Share your reviews, I would love to hear your feedback.

Have now read this twice! The case studies included in this book are relevant to every educator who reads this. And... EVERY EDUCATOR SHOULD READ THIS BOOK! Do not just get one for yourself; get one for your teacher friend and give them a gift they will be able to use and reuse. The information is THAT GOOD!

This book is a game changer. Dr. Pearlman shares his experiences with students, both successes and situations he wishes he handled differently. He helps us view these experiences through the lens of mental health and social/emotional learning. The situations are real and something any educator can come up against. The reflection questions guide you to ponder different solutions and challenge the reader to learn and do better. Powerful stuff!

As a special education teacher, I plan to keep this book handy as a reference for meetings with parents. I love that each chapter has specific examples for how to handle situations and addresses ways that parents and the school can work together. I enjoyed the quotes at the beginning of the chapters and the discussion questions at the end. This would be a great book to use as a Professional Development opportunity for a group of educators.

Dr. Pearlman’s book: “Ramping Up: Striving to Be Your Best Self” is a detailed and comprehensive outline for self-improvement. The author covers over one hundred topics ranging from Stress and Anxiety Management, Overcoming Adversity, to Positive Thinking, Goal Setting, and Gratitude. Each chapter provides the tools and strategy for the individual to achieve personal growth. This book is recommended for teenagers through adulthood. This book will help you reach your full potential by becoming your best self.

Love, love, love! Dr. Pearlman shares such a heartwarming and insightful message through this book that helps to see ADHD in a positive light. This book will open your eyes to ADHD, seeing it from a whole other perspective. Such a great book that can be used as a guide for children, parents, and educators to help understand and support children with ADHD!

Just finished reading "Mastering Conflict: Resolving Disputes, Building Bridges, and Finding Common Ground," and wow, it's a game-changer! Whether it's family feuds, office drama, or just daily disagreements, this book covers it all. The deep dive into the psychology behind conflicts—like the role of adrenaline and ego—is super insightful. Loved the real-world examples from famous feuds to everyday issues. If you're looking to turn your conflicts into growth opportunities, this book has the tools you need. Definitely a must-read for anyone looking to improve their conflict resolution skills and strengthen relationships!
