Recenzii
I am extremely excited about the prospects for this book and the impact it will make on children via their teachers. Dr. Mabry is uniquely qualified to write Perspective because “he is Perspectives.” Dr. Mabry’s personal story is extraordinarily profound. He was one of those so called “at risk” youth he writes and speaks about. In hindsight, it is clear and evident that Dr. Mabry was brilliant as a youth but his brilliance was simply misplaced. In Perspective: The Secret to Student Motivation and Success, Dr. Mabry provides educators with a blueprint for reaching difficult to reach children. Although Perspective is well researched, Dr. Mabry knows the unmotivated child he has written about intimately because he epitomizes that child – a child who went from “At Risk” Tommie Mabry to Tommie Mabry, Ph. D.

Notă biografică
Dr. Tommie Mabry grew up in Jackson, Mississippi. With a lack of positive role models, Dr. Mabry turned to life in the streets. He was expelled from numerous schools and by age 11, he was arrested for breaking and entering. Things started to change for Dr. Mabry when he joined an AAU basketball team that traveled around the world. Although he was shot in the foot during his senior year, he received a full basketball scholarship to Missouri State University West Plains. After completing his undergraduate studies at Tougaloo College, he taught school in the same district where he had been expelled numerous times. Subsequently he has served as Director of Enrollment at Tougaloo College before founding the company that bears his name. He earned his Ph.D. from Jackson State University and has published three books, A Dark Journey to a Light Future, If Tommie Can Do It, We Can Do It, and Little Tommie¿s Four B¿s.
Dr. Mabry¿s platform tackles the experiences and challenges that minority students face in communities and educational environments. By focusing on real-life topics such as, bullying, life skills, classroom management and more, it gives students a positive outlook on teaching and learning and the ability to balance.
As an advocate for education and student success, Dr. Mabry travels around the country encouraging educators to focus on the whole student and motivating youth to never give up on hope.
