Testimonials
“Within an ever faster changing world, the workshops clearly show that ethical decision making is and will be a constant within our lives. It helps us to bridge different cultures, religions, beliefs, and value systems. It is our responsibility as parents to pass this continuous learning process on to our children.”
- Nathalie Tiepoldt-Schmitz, KPS Parent
“'It’s Just Twitter' is one of the best workshops on digital life that I have attended. Your thoughts about the need for adults to talk about these issues rather than lecture are critical.”
