Maurice Bulls M.Ed., is a full-time MI trainer. My current focus is on adapting MI to map on to the language of minority clients and staff. My graduate work focused on cooperative learning, an evidence-based system for teaching students in small group settings, using highly specified instructional strategies to encourage students to work together in teams towards a common goal while helping each other learn. I have expanded our MI workshops to incorporate these strategies as well as fun, interactive training activities. In addition, I have over 22 years of experience in inner city school settings. Also I have been involved in manual development for new interventions that integrate MI with skills training and physical activity programs. As well as having vast experience in evaluation in educational settings and academic research.
