He touches on all these subjects in his material. Steve is fascinated by the
reasons people act the way they do and searches for ways we can make life
fuller. He touches on some
of the most elemental truths. The values we learned in school are still
important to us as adults in both our social relationships and in our
professional lives.
Steve still

and, of course, teaching continues to generate fresh material. No one has a better time performing
on stage than Steve.
He is
the real deal.

Steve Brinder has
the rare talent to make us laugh at ourselves….

His antics have you rolling in
laughter. His delivery is natural and witty. He interacts with the audience
and everyone feels at home. After he takes you to the brink of happy tears
he validates, with insightful reasoning, that what you do in the classroom
everyday can make the difference in a child’s life.
