It has been an honour to be part of the Career Paths Program.
I have travelled throughout York Region and each location presented its own challenges and yet the results were wonderful.
I will miss driving to Sutton, Keswick, Vaughan, Newmarket, Markham, Stouffville and Richmond Hill.

If you have been a participants in any of my workshops…please know what a pleasure it was to meet you!

For all of you who are following my blog..yes I will be on twitter next month…I will not be back in the Fall at Taylor Place,North York Senior Centre, Ryerson or Seneca!

I will be teaching two Psychology Courses for the Toronto District School Board in the Fall…Wednesday evenings and Saturday afternoons (416-395-4111).

I will be at Amica (Bayview and Sheppard) on a regular basis. Please call them (416-9773177).

Fun with moving….

NEVER SAY NEVER……

Living in a condo has its challenges.

I swore that I would never own a buggy……..and now I have three!!!!!

I have lived through my first Fire alarm…stuck elevator…buying a buggy…meeting dog owners…missing keys…waiting….

The adventure has started and I plan to experience this place thoroughly.

My class gave me a coupon for a car wash located at Bayview and Sheppard (P2) beside Loblaws…my car never looked so good!!!!!!

I will be seeing Paul McCartney in person on Sunday August 8th..yes…I will let you know about the experience from my perspective next week!

Great to be back!

Thanks again everyone for caring enough to ask about me.

I have recently been in the unfortunate position in needing help at a car body shop.
I own a Toyota Corolla.
\In all of my classes I always say that what happens to you..you have no control but how you deal with the situation is what you control.

Most of you wanted to know how I was feeling and secondly where did I go to get help I needed.
So…..I am recommending DON VALLEY NORTH AUTOMOTIVE GROUP AT 391 John Street, Thornhill, Ontario. 905-886-0434.

I HOPE THIS RECOMMENDATION HELPS, SINCE SO MANY OF YOU HAVE ASKED ME……

DILIKA PERERA —-body shop admilnisstrative assistant and KINGSLEY, who is wxtremely knowledgeable.

SECONDLY, I LOVE TO GO TO SEE MOVIES.

A GREAT MOVIE IS BLIND SIDE!

It has been an eventful year.

I would like to wish all of you a Happy and Healthy New Year.

I did not realize how many of your actually read the blog so I have decided to continue it in more detail next year.

Facilitating Career Paths in York Region with Career Solutions for the TDSB has been a true honor.  I wish all of the participants success in their job search. It has been a pleasure to meet all of you.

As a motivational speaker for Amica, I would like to thank the people  at Bayview and Sheppard for being so inspirational to me. You show me  that life is truly to be lived to the fullest! You challenge me and that makes me research more and therefore come up with better lectures. I wish all of you Health and Happiness in the New Year!

I promise to work on my book and finally publish it! (Inspirational Quotes)

To the Mackenzie Girls, you are a wonderful group of ladies and I enjoy our dinners out very much…thanks Judy.

To my Psychology Classes and everyone who attends them, thank you for sharing you experiences with me. I bring the Psychology Theory and all of you actually bring the REALITY  which we all learn from. Thanks for all of your efforts. I am absolutely overwhelmed at how far some of you come to attend the classes.

I will actually write the names and addresses of businesses that have been exceptional. I will also review movies, as requested, in January 2010!

I will be volunteering to serve dinner twice during the holiday season.  If anyone is interested me please let me know.

 

Hello everyone,
It has been a really tough time fighting my way back to good health..but I am getting there!
I would like to share some invaluable information with all of you about my eye surgery. Please look it up on google. The video is truly informative and intriguing..if it was not done on me!!!! Keeping your head down for a week was very difficult. The rented equipment was indispensable for my recovery this far.
The psychological lessons gained in every experience have been discussed in our classes. According to the classes the “Power of No” has made an impact!

As an adult educator I am in my glory!!!
All my Psychology Classes in the community are filled and I am encountering all the age groups. Having to combine Education and Entertainment has been a wonderful challenge. No one learns when they are bored!!! I am astounded that so many of my students come from so very far away (in Toronto).
The Career Paths program is one of the best self assessment programs offered anywhere. I see twenty people almost every Monday, who are truly down and then I see twenty people leave empowered by their own potential on Friday afternoon. It is such a pleasure to be part of this wonderful process.
The feedback has been incredible.
I would like to congratulate Martha Alvarez on her beautiful paintings. The art show that I have attended have been spectacular in every way!!!!
This week the Mackenzie Girls got together (thanks to Judy,  we get together monthly). Our dinners together are fun. I feel sharing our time together has become very important. WE share news about everything and everyone and all in a positive way.
The topic this week in class was the INK BLOT testing and everyone enjoyed the process of actually taking the test and analyzing it from different perspectives.
I also gave three lectures in the community this month and the topics were very well received. The Toronto Police Mobilization Unit, Psychology of Crime and a book review of The Last Lecture were the topics covered.
It has been a very busy week and the feedback has been wonderful.
I will be volunteering, once again, on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day for the “Out of the Cold Program” feeding the homeless. If anyone would like to join me please let me know. Last year we had a great time.

I cannot believe how fast the time has gone.
Since I am facilitating the Career Paths Workshops, I am unable to take on more than two Psychology Community Classes.
What a wonderful surprise that so many of you have signed up!
Three topics that we will be reviewing are: Dr. Berber’s Cognitive Behavioral Therapy booklet, Erickson’s Developmental Theories and Emotional Quotient.
Looking forward to lots of wonderful learning!
Yesterday, I visited the North York Artists and Marta Alvarez’s work is sensational and a pleasure to to view.
I am thriving in York Region and getting to all of the the ERCs and the wonderful staff at each location.
WOW moments truly happen every week! As an Adult Educator it is so very rewarding.
Good Luck!
Anne

Hello everyone,
After teaching daytime classes for over twenty years, I have taken on a full time contract, and have had to change everything.
PLEASE NOTE:
I am very grateful that the Toronto Board of Education has given me the opportunity to teach two classes in the Fall…not during the daytime hours.
The new classes will be offered on Wednesday evenings at Northview Heights and Saturday afternoons at Overland Learning Centre. To register please call 416-338-4111.
Please understand this was done only two weeks ago and the classes need to be advertised by word of mouth.
If you are one of my daytime students and do not go out at night, please try to step out of the box and try an evening class.
The locations were picked so all of the participants can have a location near them.
Hope to see you soon.

i HAVE JUST CONFIRMED MY SPEAKING DATES AT AMICA. You must call and reserve a spot. It is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to actually visit and see active seniors learn and thrive….
SEPTEMBER 14TH, AND 29TH
OCTOBER 5TH AND 26TH, NOVEMBER 9TH AND 23RD AND DECEMBER 7TH WHERE THE THEME IS LAUGHTER. ALL LECTURES ARE PSYCHOLOGICALLY BASED.
Hope to see you there.
