Jill Greenbaum, Ed.D., founder of Major In You, is a nationally recognized speaker and expert in empowerment and strengths-based coaching. Her personalized and creative approach is founded upon education theory and her years of practice in both education and coaching. She has worked with over 6,000 students as a speaker and coach. While she is passionate about her individual coaching work with teens, to increase her impact, Jill has developed seminars and redesigned her coaching program for teens. Now, Making the GRADE, can be used with groups. Jill is a gifted and popular speaker in high schools, as well as regional, and national conferences. She brings her academic background, decades of experience in the field of education, expertise in interactive learning, and a wealth of practical strategies, methods, and resources to her audiences. Jill is an educator, writer, speaker, parent of a recent college graduate, and an alumni interviewer for Clark University. Jill began her career as a teacher for students with special education needs in the New York City public school system, and became a principal and administrator. Her bachelor's and master's degrees in child psychology and special education (respectively), and her doctorate in curriculum development, from Teachers College, Columbia University, form the foundation of her academic background. She is also a graduate of CoachU and Martin Seligman's Authentic Happiness Coaching Program. She's an innovator in using visuals to coach teens and parents during the college search, and her work is grounded in the field of positive psychology. She uses a strengths-based approach in working with teens to help them understand themselves, meet challenges and problem-solve. This particular framework encourages self- awareness, reduces anxiety, enhances clients' self esteem, facilitates growth and goal achievement, and sets Jill apart from the competition. Jill's blog, which can be found on her website, www.majorinyou.com, provides up-to-date information and commentary about the latest ideas and trends in the field of college admissions. She has authored several ebooks, articles, ecourses, and teleclasses. Her website offers a variety of materials including free articles, mini-assessments, and information about her individual and group coaching programs.
