And What People Say...

On behalf of all of the members of the Bellmore-Merrick professional staff who had the opportunity to attend your workshops on Service Learning and Community Safety (Tolerance Center, NYC, January 2004), I extend my deepest gratitude. It was a wonderful experience, which left each of us motivated and enthusiastic. As I said to a colleague on the way home, I am now able to look at the things we do in and out of the classroom from a very different perspective. One could not ask for more.
- Arnie Goldstein, Assistant Superintendent, Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District, Long Island, New York

Cathy Kaye is one of the most wise and dynamic resources on service learning. Her knowledge of strategies, resources, people, and ideas in service learning on almost any topic is encyclopedic. Unlike an encyclopedia, though, she is engaging and inspiring. Her workshops engage everyone in important questions about how and why to do service learning.
- Dave Donahue, Ph.D., Mills College

Cathy Berger Kaye is, in a word, DYNAMIC. Her presentation style is vibrant and engaging, her knowledge extensive. She can easily move from talking about projects for K–12 students to suggesting how to infuse high quality service learning into college and university curriculums. As a conference presenter, she is the morning get-the-crowd-going and the late afternoon picker-upper- she simply wows her audience.
- Linda S. Hargreaves, Program Coordinator, Undergraduate Studies, University of Central Florida

As a career educator who has been to more workshops than I can count, I can honestly say that this was the most outstanding one I have attended. Your passion for service learning and your expertise, combined with your amazing skills in presenting, resulted in a workshop that is motivating and inspiring. You have certainly channeled our energies and given new direction to the power of education to change the world.
- Anita Meinbach, Ed.D., University of Miami School of Education, Miami, Florida

I attended your service learning session at the National Middle School Association in Atlanta and came away with many valuable ideas (as well as your book!). Thanks so much for the inspiring presentation!
- Barb Matheny, teacher, Ohio

Cathryn has completed at least six service learning professional development training workshops within the last year for our New York State Service Learning sub-grantees, regional networks, and statewide institutes. Her presentations were well-organized, informative, energizing, and customized to meet the specific training and classroom needs of the teacher participants. The reviews were superb. We are very pleased with the end results and are making plans to use her for many future trainings. I would highly recommend her as a presenter or trainer for any situation.
- Fran Hollen, New York State Learn and Serve America Coordinator
