I really enjoyed exploring the different types of learners and discovering strategies to better engage with a diverse audience. This will help me connect with people more effectively in future teaching opportunities.
The course provided clear frameworks for structuring content in a way that makes complex material approachable and easy to apply.
I gained greater confidence in my ability to step into a trainer role — not just sharing knowledge but facilitating meaningful learning experiences.
I would love to contribute by creating new content, especially in the areas of infant and child development, milestones, primitive reflexes, and working with special populations within the pediatric chiropractic realm. This could include materials not only for chiropractors, but also for parents and other professionals we collaborate with. I am also eager to assist in hands-on classes within the pediatric certification series, as I know how valuable that practical learning is. Beyond content and assisting, I want to continue growing as a chiropractic educator and am open to additional opportunities where I can support the Institute’s educational process and mission.
Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson are truly incredible mentors. Their feedback and encouragement have been invaluable in helping me grow not only as a chiropractor, but also as an individual. The Train the Trainer program itself challenged me to step outside of my comfort zone and gave me the tools and confidence to level up as an educator. I am continually impressed by their passion for teaching and their commitment to advancing the profession. The way they balance deep expertise with genuine care for their students makes the learning experience both inspiring and impactful.

Three takeaways from this program that I would share with others:
1. The value of learning how to teach, not just what to teach, understanding the process of creating, structuring, and delivering content.
2. The importance of being pushed outside of your comfort zone in order to grow, even when it feels uncomfortable or discouraging at times.
3. The realization that teaching isn’t just about knowledge, but about clarity, presence, and the ability to engage others.At this time, I feel most aligned with assisting teachers, supporting students, and possibly stepping into recruitment or outreach with chiropractic colleges. In the future, I can see myself stepping into an assistant instructor role when the timing and my confidence align.
The program was excellent at teaching us how to teach and giving us tools to create presentations. For me personally, it didn’t build confidence as much as it revealed where I need more practice. In some ways, my confidence took a dip, but the knowledge I gained was invaluable. I also found the five-minute presentation format difficult, it felt challenging to develop meaningful content in such a short window. After talking with a classmate from previous courses she found ease with making a larger presentation and then took slides from it to make the smaller presentation. Perhaps a progression model building toward a 30 to 40-minute presentation with smaller steps along the way could help future participants.

“My three takeaways from this program:
Structure of presentations, importance of storytelling, and the value of having an audience to run your presentations by prior to going live with them.
This program has increased my ability to focus my message on any given subject without feeling the need to dump every bit of what’s in my brain on them.
Thank you for this course and for the opportunities you have given me! I am eternally grateful!!”

“This program helps you own the material to bring it to others. It helps you reassess your approach to teaching. It gives many suggestions on teaching styles and how to teach multiple styles of learning.
I feel that it has helped me gain confidence in my ability.
This class has a gentle approach to nudging one forward. The workload is light, but the knowledge gained is huge!”

“The three takeaways that I got from the program are:
1. I learned how to use PowerPoint and utilize PowerPoint, in order to teach Pediatric cranials to other chiropractors.
2. I learned how people learn, and how to reach different types of learners, for example, people who learn visually, or auditory or hands on.
3. I also learned from other Chiropractors who are also in the Train the Trainer program.This program has impacted my life personally and professionally, by enabling me to really learn this material, because when you have to teach the material, you really learn how to master the material. It has impacted me personally, because it has upped my income, and so, I am able to better provide for my family. I am getting referrals from patients, lactation consultants, and speech therapists, doulas, and so on.
I have been studying with Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson since 2006, they are extremely knowledgeable and professional, and I look forward to continue to work with them in the future.”
