"Dr. Nauri provided invaluable support during the development of my literacy research project and professional website, The Literacy Connection, as part of my Master of Education in Literacy program. Her guidance was instrumental in refining my conceptual framework and strengthening the overall presentation of my work.
Through her strategic insight and thoughtful feedback, I was able to more effectively connect research to classroom practice, particularly in my focus on the role of background knowledge in reading comprehension. Her support helped me produce a well-structured, research-based blog that clearly communicates practical literacy strategies for both educators and families.
Overall, her expertise and attention to detail significantly enhanced the quality and impact of my work, resulting in a more polished and purposeful final product."

"I’ll be honest, I had doubts about using the APEX Emotional Intelligence Model™ in my classroom.

"I’ll be honest, I had doubts about using the APEX Emotional Intelligence Model™ in my classroom. When I first spoke with Dr. Nauri about it, I wasn’t convinced it would translate into a real teaching environment. Managing a classroom full of students is unpredictable, emotional, and fast-moving. I didn’t see how a structured model could hold up in that kind of pressure.
But I decided to apply it anyway, and that’s when everything shifted.
The first thing I noticed was Awareness. Instead of immediately reacting to disruptive behavior, I started separating what was actually happening from how I felt about it. That alone reduced a lot of unnecessary escalation.
Then came Poise. This was the hardest part. Staying composed when students were testing boundaries required discipline, but I quickly realized that my tone and body language were setting the emotional temperature of the room. When I stayed steady, the class stabilized faster.
Execution became clearer. I stopped over-talking, over-correcting, and reacting emotionally. My responses became more intentional, short, direct, and consistent. Students started responding differently because my actions were more predictable and controlled.
And the biggest shift was Influence. I didn’t have to demand authority anymore, it was recognized. The classroom felt more structured, more respectful, and surprisingly, less stressful.
What I initially doubted turned out to be exactly what I needed. The APEX EI Model™ didn’t just help me manage my students, it helped me manage myself under pressure. And that changed everything about how I lead my classroom."
