"Once I learned Darren's system for managing student behavior, I
haven't referred one student to the office- all year! "

The system was so easy to learn and implement, I only wish I'd learned
it my first year of teaching. It would have saved me so much time and
stress. To think that I could make it through my day without getting
frustrated or upset has made all the difference in my decision to
remain in the teaching profession. I absolutely love my job now!

Read about Darren Barkett's early troubles teaching below...

Date:

"The dreaded "big talk" with my principal."

My principal called me in to her office early in the year of my second
year teaching. She'd heard from a couple parents who called concerned
at how I had acted in front of the class. In no uncertain terms, my
principal laid it all on the line. She told me, simply, that unless I
learned how to...

manage students who don't want to learn

motivate students

deal with chronically tardy students

handle disrespectful and defiant students

manage the little behaviors like bathroom breaks and
frequently absent students

stop the bullying and harassment going on in my class

...that I wouldn't be hired back for my second year of teaching. And I
probably wouldn't be hired on by any school in the district! My
teaching career would be over before it ever got started!

I started crying. I felt like a fool. Here I was, bawling like one of
my students, in front of my principal. What would I do if I couldn't
teach? The last five years of my life I'd dedicated to teaching. I
wasn't qualified to do anything else! For so long, I'd expected to be
one of those career teachers that teachers for 30 years or more. And
here I am nearly fired after my first year!

What was I going to do?

-----------------------------------------

"Turning Things Around"

I went home that night and spent the entire weekend trying to look at
my problems with my students from a new perspective. What was it
exactly that was keeping me from being successful in the classroom?

I made a list of the dozen or so different behaviors that kept me from
teaching my students. And what I realized is that nearly all my
students' misbehaviors and all my frustrations were caused by one
missing element. You know what that was?

I hadn't taught my students how to behave.

It sounds silly, I know. Especially in the older grades. Teaching
students how to behave? They should just know how!

But clearly they didn't. Otherwise I wouldn't be having the problems I
was having.

So I went to school the next week with some nice homemade signs about
being nice to eachother and being respectful to me and the other
students. I even took the time to show the students my nice signs and
to calmly warn them about the importance of doing what the signs told
them to, which was simple statements like "Be respectful!" and "Treat
others the way you want to be treated."

This should change everything! If my students knew how to behave, then
I shouldn't have any more problems.

It didn't work.

That very same day I found myself losing my temper all over again. I
tried to calm myself down, but it just didn't work.

Why couldn't my students just sit down and listen to me?

Didn't they realize how important this was to their futures? Couldn't
they see how much I really cared about them and their personal growth?

Perhaps that wasn't the problem. Perhaps my well-intentioned signs
encouraging "mutual respect" weren't clear enough. Perhaps I needed to
approach my students behaviors as if it were an entire lesson all by
itself.

I spent that evening working on a new lesson. A lesson I'd never taught
before. A lesson I'd never heard anyone else teach before, either.

This lesson would teach students how to behave in my class. And I was
going to be so specific that there wouldn't be any room for
misunderstanding.

I came to school the next day, armed with my new lesson, which had
actually turned into a two day lesson. I explained to the students why
I had to teach them these silly sounding lessons.

And I taught them, following my lesson plan carefully, being as
specific and calm as possible.

You know what happened?

.

.

.

It WORKED!

It really worked! I mean it wasn't perfect from the start, but by the
end of that week, my students were behaving better. I was interrupted
less. Students were listening more. I didn't have to repeat myself a
dozen times to be heard. I hadn't raised my voice nearly all week. I
even laughed with my students at different points.

By Friday of that week, I surprised myself when I looked in the mirror
before heading out the door for the weekend. I was smiling again! I was
even looking forward to Monday so that I could see if my success with
my new class management system was a fluke or if it would continue to
work.

The next week, not only did it continue to work, but other things got
easier, too! When in the past I would have been terribly frustrated
at...

disrespectful and defiant students
students who shout in class
students who won't sit down
the chronically unprepared student
students who won't listen
students not following directions
having to tell students over and over what to do

...now I know exactly how to handle these situations without losing my
temper or getting upset. In fact, as time passed, those behaviors
showed up less and less. It was amazing for me to witness. In a matter
of weeks if not days, I had completely turned around my entire approach
to managing student behaviors and my outlook on teaching had changed
too.

My principal came by later that semester and asked me jokingly, "What
happend to that other teacher that used to be in here?"

My students were fun to be around, and my parents were often visibly
thankful with me when I ran into them in the community.

I had become the teacher I'd always wanted to be.

And I want to help you become the teacher you want to be, too!

That's why I've developed this training. And that's why I want you to
have it!

"I was fed up with all the systems my principals wanted me to use, but
Darren's management style was so easy, I was using it the very next
day."

I was really surprised at how quickly it changed my students'
behaviors. Students I had about given up on totally turned around and
became constructive members of my class. It wasn't two weeks later that
I realized I hadn't raised my voice even once since I started using the
methods Darren taught me.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.
