Todd Corbid

Todd believes that everyone has the ability to create the teaching environment and life they have always dreamed. Sometimes we just need the spark that will help ignite the winning attitude that we all have deep inside. Todd helps provide the sparks.

Labeled learning disabled in first grade, Todd Corbin grew up with tremendously low self-esteem causing years of frustration and anger. Now an expert who speaks professionally on self-esteem and motivation and a community college instructor, Todd regularly speaks to teachers, students, and parents on ways of using life experience to positively transform our present moment awareness.

Todd spent more than a dozen years as an educational sales consultant for Prentice Hall, Houghton Mifflin, and South-Western College Publishing. During that time he worked with thousands of teachers from all subject disciplines. He personally interviewed hundreds of those educators finding out specifically what they did to help students learn more effectively in the classroom. This research led to the creation of the "Creating A Winning Attitude in the Classroom and Beyond" workshops designed specifically for teachers and school staffs. Todd combines this program with much of the work he has done in stress and attitude management.

Todd is co-creator of CosmiKids^TM–an educational development program for children and parents based on evolutionary thinking located in Brea, CA. Much of the curriculum was originally created for use at the Deepak Chopra Center in Carlsbad, CA.

He is also creator of Mighty Messengers^TM, a program that teaches children the basics of public speaking to impact the world with the power of their words and spirit.

Todd looks forward to speaking at your next event!

Our K-8 school targets students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD) and Asperger’s Syndrome, and I felt Mr. Corbin would be perfect for our staff. Todd not only tailored his workshop to meet our needs, but his enthusiasm permeated through to the many teachers/staff members.
