[2026 Academy Web] Thanks for registering: Start the School Year

Congrats! 🎉 Your Seat is Saved.

You're Registered for How to Start Next School Year Calm, Confident, & Fully In Control from Day One

Summer gets busy.

You're on vacation. Dinner needs to happen. Your own kids need you. Or you show up live and realize, “I need to watch that part again.”

And if your teacher brain is filled with lists of things you need and want to change for next year (or trying to figure out where to even start if you're setting up a new elementary classroom), you already know how draining that feels.

Classroom set-up & layout. Organization. Classroom management. Planning. Grading. The constant mental load of wondering how to make things easier with parents next year and prevent the behaviors you had this year.

VIT gives you the workbook, the lifetime replay, the presentation slide deck, and classroom-ready tools so you have a step-by-step plan to help you decide what to set up first and leave the class with a clear back-to-school action plan.

Yes, Upgrade Me to VIT for $27

No thanks — I'll attend without the workbook, replay, or tools.

Learning Centers Made Easy

A practical guide to setting up learning centers for any subject, even if you’ve never done centers before.

One teacher shared:

“I am forever grateful I was directed towards you. I already feel so much support and guidance thanks to you! Thank you for all you do for the future teachers. I am forever blessed to have found you!”

Another wrote:

“When I was getting ready for my first classroom I signed up for one of Dr. Friesen's trainings and I still refer to those resources to this day.”

That’s the goal here.

Not more random ideas.

Not another thing to print and forget.

Just classroom-tested, practical help you can actually use to prepare for the school year with a clear, step-by-step plan.
