Table of Contents Author Biography

Dr. Jeannette Vos is a Netherlands-born, Canadian -raised, American doctor of education. As a highly-skilled teacher and corporate trainer she has worked with people of diverse cultures, from all walks of life and all age groups -- from early childhood through to high school, university and beyond to senior citizens. She earned her doctorate with a seven-year research program into the world’s best learning methods.

As a learning consultant, researcher and co-author of the international best seller, The Learning Revolution, Dr. Vos has trained thousands of people internationally on accelerated, integrative and conceptual learning methods. As a world leader in this area, she has spent more than ten years on an almost non-stop series of presentations around the globe: to corporations, educational organizations and schools. One authority says she has done more to change Swedish education than any other person in the past 20 years.

Most recently she has added numerous health certifications to her repertoire of skills as she feels strongly that most people ignore the health of the brain/mind/body/spiritual connection for optimal living, learning/unlearning and thinking/unthinking.

Her book, Unlimited: Your new learning revolution and the seven keys to unlock it, coauthored with Gordon Dryden breaks new ground into the broader picture of integrative, conceptual and accelerated learning within our high tech world. However, Jeannette is currently working on her other books relating to brain research, music and brain/mind/body/spiritual health and learning, with an emphasis on achieving excellence in ones life, through learning to eat healthy, learning to learn, unlearn and think, communication skills, creative problem solving, innovating, and literally -- designing ones own future - mentally, physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually.

The Learning Revolution is already the world’s biggest-selling non-fiction book, with 10.2 million copies sold in China alone. It has been translated into twenty different languages.

Now comes a bold new follow-up: a stunning blueprint for the twenty-first century.

Gordon Dryden and Jeannette Vos have called it simply UNLIMITED:Yournewlearningrevolutionandthesevenkeystounlockit.

The crisp, easy-to-grasp text tells the stunning story of the unlimited revolution that is already changing

the way the world learns - at every age. Amazingly most people are not consciously aware of how that will completely reinvent education,

schooling, teaching and lifelong learning.

But this new book unlocks the revolution with full-colour photos and graphics on every page that visually telegraph and reinforce the scope of unlimited opportunities, unlimited potential, unlimited achievement, unlimited challenge, unlimited support, all creating unlimited futures.

Once again, this new book brings together two unique talents:

• One, the Dutch-born American educated highly creative and strategic teacher, trainer, researcher, natural health advocate, who earned her doctorate in education from a seven-year research study with optimal learning methods.

• The other, the New Zealand-born international multimedia journalist and creative thinker who has produced and presented twenty two television programs on new methods of learning.

Above all, the combined talents, skills and insights model the vital changes this book brings about.

Keynote Speaker

ATC Vision CollegeMarch 2009, Hamilton, New Zealand

Dr. Jeannette Vos has often been invited to be a keynote speaker for special events. Here she is the graduation keynote speaker for students receiving Bachelors and diploma awards in schools of learning, including: business, music, IT, leadership, early childhood education, and Christian ministry.



Example ofInternational Work (Continued)

Having a background in nutrition, Dr. Vos has presented numerous demonstrations on how to prepare raw food in a gourmet way. Jeannette teaches people about the benefits of eating living foods (instead of dead foods) and how to substitute cooked and processed “foods”with delicious, nutritious ones that are good for both the brain and body!

Here Jeannette is demonstrating how to make almond milk which is healthier than the milk from animals.

A Model Learning Revolution School

Masters Academy and CollegeAlbert, Canada

Tom Rudmik, Superintendent and CEO, came to Dr. Vos’ Summer Institute in San Diego in 1996. The following year, February 1997, Masters Academy was introduced to Calgary at its first annual Profound Learning Seminar with Jeannette as keynote speaker. Masters Academy and College is one of the top model schools from around the world. They have created their own educational design, “from scratch,” following the principles of TheLearningRevolution.

Protégé from USA

Shannon Rawmaka, protege of Dr. Jeannette Vos, first came to the Learning Revolution Institute, in July of 1996, for Jeannette’s 10-day training workshop.

Subsequently, Shannon coordinated several workshops in Oregon for teachers, took additional training herself (Level 2) and even set up her own school at Eagle Point, called the Renaissance School.

Although her funding source was cancelled, Shannon has now taken her expertise to Africa and Europe

where she has been working with International Bacculaureate Schools. Her specialty is drama and the arts. On one occasion, her students dressed up and presented speeches from famous people.

WorkshopInvercargil, NZ

In July, 2003, Dr. Jeannette Vos was in Invercargil, the most southern tip of New Zealand for a two-week innovator conference organized by co-author Gordon Dryden and Venture Southland. Jeannette was both a participant and keynote presenter. She noted how the workshops at this conference were models for the future of education because they involved innovative teaching methods while including the use of technology for all grade levels.

Known for her extensive use of props and metaphors in teaching, Jeannette did a workshop on how to connect such strategies together with music for optimal learning. She demonstrated how to create a learning environment that empowers the brain through various activations involving a continuous flow of music from stimulation to relaxation, then back to further challenge, while all along, providing security for participants. Says Vos, “Music is a very very powerful subliminal force.”


WorkshopThe Netherlands

In June, 2002, Kase Blase invited Jeannette to do several trainings for the DepartmentofEducationin Holland. The following year she was a keynote presenter at the Heart and Soul of Learning conference.

Jeannette demonstrated the brain research (through a simulation exercise) to her Dutch participants, most of whom were trainers for schools and companies. “Every child has the potential to be uniquely talented or gifted,” says Jeannette. “But the real question is, what kind of environment are we giving children, in the home, in schools and even in utero (for the unborn child)? These factors will influence their degree of “giftedness”.

The Netherlands is Jeannette’s birth country, so she still reads and speaks the Dutch language. Having to learn English as a second language has given her a sense of compassion for those who need to learn a new language. With the accelerated learning methods, learning a language can now be done much more easily and quickly.

Conference Keynote PresentationThe 20 Best Strategies for Teaching

and Learning Warsaw, Poland, March, 2005

Strategy #12

You are what you eat

because your brain cells need insulation and

nourishment to speed messages around your body

Jeannette is throwing a few bananas into the audience for them to catch. Bananas are a rich source of potassium, which is important for optimal brain

functioning.

Another way to accelerate learning is to use all the senses and to make the

presentation emotional, meaningful and relevant to the learner. “The door to learning is emotion,” says Jeannette“Without the emotional connection that gives meaning, there is very little memory of the event.”

Brisbane, Australia, August 3-5, 2001

Brain Research and Learning

The conference organizer requested a research paper and slide presentation to be presented at the Joint Conference sponsored by The Alliance of Girls’ Schools and International Boys’ Schools Coalition. Most conferences typically expect lecture format. But Vos presented the research paper and slide presentation in accelerated learning format. The audience was amazed at the high energy format and realized the potential for application to the classroom -- at any grade level.

The presentation demonstrated ten important lessons from the brain research, and highlighted how boys and girls brains are different.
