Terry O. Faulkner

“Terry Faulkner is someone you definitely want on your team. He pays considerable attention to the relevance of his instructional design. I noticed a lot of effort on his part to incorporate engaging multi-media components whenever appropriate. With his facilitation experience, he truly has end to end capability. He’s also a very warm person and a pleasure to be around.”

“I have worked with Terry since 2012. I confidently recommended him for his current position because I knew his enthusiasm for learning and his professionalism as an educator and trainer would be an excellent match at Yeungnam University. I have observed him as a peer and seen that his classes are well designed and skillfully executed. He is versatile and flexible in his instruction to keep learners engaged and motivated throughout the training period. Finally, he is not only concerned with his own professional development but seeks out opportunities to bring positive change to each organization that he belongs.”

I have had the great experience of working with Terry in a confrontational experience as I have been able to call on him for advice, guidance, and direction. Terry is the person you can ask any question to and he will give you an almost immediate response or he will have you a correct answer as soon as possible. Terry has given me advice that has made me stronger with college age students. Also, he has helped me to understand the finer aspects of teaching in general. Terry is highly motivated and is not afraid to reach out and communicate with people from different jobs and cultures to achieve the results necessary to complete the task. I would not hesitate to have him on a team as his addition to any team would only insure success.

Terry Faulkner is well rounded and extremely knowledgeable in many areas. One area in particular is his English writing skills. He has been more than willing to proofread and give me advice on numerous essays. His expertise and advice has helped shape my writing capabilities making me a stronger writer. Terry is a true professional and master of his craft. His passion for teaching is evident with how thorough and detailed he is. He says he does it because it helps him learn about new subjects. That is a testament to a lifelong learner, teacher, and mentor. Terry has dedicated many years ensuring his students, colleagues, supervisors, and friends put their best forward which fosters an environment of wisdom and awareness. I highly recommend Terry Faulkner for any position in education or training.

Meeting Terry was a defining moment in my teaching career. His positivity, passion, and creativity had a significant impact on me during my time in Korea. Terry and I shared an office at Gyeongju University for two years, and we have kept in touch since. When I first met Terry, I was impressed by his knowledge of Canadian history and politics; I think he knew more than I did, and he’s an American citizen! The important point about that though is that he never made me feel ignorant about what I didn’t know about my own country. He was still genuinely interested in my ideas, experiences, and opinions – and that went for any subject matter on the table. Terry is a lifelong learner who truly wants to understand people and the world, and he does a lot of this through active listening - one of his best skills. Terry gives you his full attention when speaking with him, and he makes you feel valued. My confidence as a professional grew because of Terry, and I am forever grateful to him for that. I truly hope that we cross career paths again.
