Welcome to the TAGteach Primary Certification and Training in Boulder, CO

  • Ways to increase the rate of success

What exactly is TAG?
The acronym TAG stands for Teaching with Acoustical Guidance, as an acoustic marker (tagger) is often used to inform the learner of success. The tagger provides pure information without the distractions inherent in language.
The TAGteach methodology incorporates multiple tools designed to identify, highlight and reinforce skill acquisition and positive communication. The tools are directly derived from the science of operant conditioning, and the precision of elite sport coaching, to provide fast effective training including problem-solving and positive reinforcement.

TAGteach tools:
  • Unique language for delivering instructions and criteria for success
  • A formula for reducing excess language during learning
  • Steps to define and exercise immediate positive reinforcement
  • A process for breaking down problems and roadblocks.

Early bird registrations end April 10, 2010

"The seminar was put together in a learner friendly manner. I was impressed by the reaction of my employees: engaged in learning, focused, and enthusiastic about the method. Even though I am an experienced clicker trainer and with a background in behavior analysis, I too learned a great deal. I was thrilled with what I learned and how I felt about the seminar." Jane Winter-Clark, Director of Special Education Peoria County
