- AI: The New Teachers Assistant
Teachers and Schools are silent architects of society, instilling knowledge, resilience and social consciousness that equip our children for lifelong success. Yet more than 50% of graduating children and adults in the workplace have reading levels far below what is required to succeed. Why?
Reading is the most challening thing for the brain to learn to do. But today, AI is revolutionizing reading and now any child can be proficient in reading by grade 3. David is living proof that using AI to learn to read works and he will inspire the audience with direct evidence of what can be done to help all students read proficiently right now. Audiences will learn:
- Visual proof of how the brain learns to read using AI
- How teachers can look to AI as a support system and assistant available 24/7
- Real Change Management
Resistance to change is hard wired in all human beings.
In this keynote David shares the real cause of why this happens no matter how prepared an organization may be to change. He explains how the brain responds and what organizations and leaders need to understand to manage successful transformations.
David shares countless examples of what happens when leaders recognize it’s not change that creates resistance but the autonomic reaction that occurs in the brain from any disruption.
Audiences leave with a new perspective and understanding on why resistance happens and what they can do about it. This knowledge leads to a culture where change is embraced and anticipated.

On behalf of Unifor and Unifor National Skilled Trades Council we would like to thankyou for your speaking engagement to our conference. Our delegates were thoroughly engaged and left the conference with more awareness of present and future technology, which was perfectly themed to our conference. Our members were excited to hear your views on autonomous vehicles as well as questioning whether to own a bedroom television. Thank you for your insight and taking the time to answer questions and engage with our members after your address and wish you all the best.
David was powerful. Very himself on stage. His message resonated deeply with our clients. Great lessons and insights, and he spoke from experience which was evident. Would I recommend David? For audiences like ours which included business people and entrepreneurs, absolutely. He over-delivered, was very warm and welcoming and really spent the time to get to know many of our clients and add value on and off the stage. The standing ovation said it all really.
Where have you been all this time, I have looked everywhere for someone to partner with who is articulate and has such knowledge that they can clearly explain anything on technology. I have come across no one like you. The way in which you tie your explanations to people’s lives stems in large part I believe from the learning disabilities. It gives you a strong empathetic tie with your audiences. Congratulations David!
Thank you very much for the wonderful keynote you gave for our conference. We had many people tell us how inspiring your keynote was ! I wish you all the best and thank you again!
Thank you for recommending David Chalk as our opening keynote for the ORCA CON, September 14, 2018 event. Please relay to David that we have received excellent feedback on his session. His information was riveting and attendees found the content extremely forward-thinking! One attendee noted “PS. Btw, I also thought the keynote was one of the best ever. Better than a Stephen King novel”. Again, thank you and thank David on ORCA’s behalf!
At the end of a long day of listening to speakers, I thought I would end the day early and skip this last session, which was David’s. Luckily, I stayed and listened to the best session of the day. Many of my colleagues came out of the session with a whole new attitude.
He is the sharpest listener and speaker I have ever come across.
David’s presentation was by far the best keynote we’ve had for this event. His knowledge, experience and perspective on the event topic was extremely thought provoking and created great conversation during and after the event. We would definitely recommend David.
We would like to extend a heart-felt thank you to you and Mr. Chalk. The Symposium went really well and we had over 100 advisors attend the event! We have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from our advisors for Mr. Chalk’s presentation, it’s a very exciting speech indeed!
David’s presentation last week in Gatineau was absolutely fantastic!
David’s lecture was very relevant for the agenda: the message was relevant, the lecture well prepared (tailored to the audience) and delivered with authority and passion. David has had extraordinary experiences and his expertise/knowledge was clearly evident. More importantly I would underscore his presentation style, personable approach and engagement with the audience as well as with individuals who approached him for further discussion following the session. There were many positive comments and we are indeed appreciative of your recommendation as well as David’s willingness to step up. Your office was excellent to work with – and we would be pleased to recommend David Chalk as a speaker or your firm anytime.
I just wanted to pass along a quick email to thank you for speaking at the TIANS Nova Scotia tourism summit. Here we are two weeks later and my mind is still spinning. I have earmarked your recommended reading. I believe your presentation was by far one of the best we have seen at the conference and really appreciate you being there.
