When teachers understand the brain behind the behaviour, everything changes.
Helping educators see students differently.
Practical.
Thought-provoking.
Immediately useful.
I help educators move beyond behaviour and build authentic, neurodiversity-affirming classrooms.
Why invite Heidi to speak?
Most professional learning tells teachers what they should do.
I help them understand why they should do it.
My sessions combine more than 30 years as a teacher, lived experience of neurodivergence, current neuroscience (Master of Inclusive and Special Education in 2025) and practical classroom strategies that teachers can implement immediately.
People leave with new knowledge.
But more importantly...
They leave seeing their students differently.
