After more than 30 years as a national level gymnastics coach, Theresa was determined to find a way to speed up skill acquisition for her athletes while simultaneously decreasing stress and fear in the learning environment. Her search for behaviorally sound techniques, clean instructions, and the proper timing of feedback and reinforcement, led to the development of the TAGteach methodology along with partners Joan Orr, Karen Pryor and Beth Wheeler. The success of the methodology has been accented by the wide range of applications embracing it.

Theresa now consults and designs TAGteach programs in multiple fields including: corporate training, industrial safety, medical and surgical training, sport coaching, even family communication. She is a sought after speaker around the world including Europe, U.K., Taiwan, Japan, Australia and New Zealand

Joey Iversen, CBATI, KPACTP TAGteach Faculty, UW-AAB, CGC Evaluator

Joey has been involved with aspects of learning and teaching for over twenty years, encompassing animal training, public outreach, animal assisted therapy, sports and recreation program development, and nutritional education.

Joey first became familiar with TAGteach ten years ago through her work with pets and pet owners in Iowa, where she co-owned a successful training, daycare, agility center and boarding facility. She developed and conducted all levels of dog obedience classes, agility training, CGC, Rally-O, private lessons, and behavior counseling. Joey incorporated TAGteach into her instruction and coaching. She coached competitors in all canine sports and personally holds titles in Obedience, Rally-O, and Agility.

TAGteach principles have also played a significant role in Joey’s work with youth and families facing many different types of challenges. She and her Black Russian Terrier, Pirate, were a registered Pet Partner team with Delta Society and participate in Animal Assisted Therapy, the Reading Education Assistance Dog program, and other animal-assisted activities to better the lives of children and families.

When Joey became interested in tennis in 2008, she quickly saw how TAGteach could enhance skill acquisition for her new sport, and she introduced TAGteach to several of the coaches. She later introduced TAGteach to the director of a tennis facility serving at-risk youth. In 2013, Joey worked with a team of coaches and volunteers to develop a tennis program for special needs players, incorporating TAGteach into the program. She has assisted and presented TAGteach seminars in the US and internationally.

In 2017 Joey joined Compass Key, a service dog training company. Joey works with owners and their dogs to acquire the skills and behavior to become certified service dogs. This work has allowed her to introduce her clients to incorporating TAGteach into their human behavior remediation.
