Tom Beggs, March 2006 "For years I've kept thinking that Tom will slow down just like the rest of us when he gets a little older. Well, Tom keeps getting older and his energy and enthusiasm for teaching remain as high as ever. I wish we had 10 more Toms working for us. Students love him and flock to his classes. I'm very glad he got this recognition." |

David Coleman, February 2006 "Study yourself. You are your own 'blueprints' for success. Make the effort to find out what moves you and what is important to you. Find your own rhythm and approach. Learn from others and treat folks the way that you would like to be treated." |
