Dwayne Reed is an author, rapper, proud husband, father, and public school teacher in Chicago, IL. In 2016, he released his viral music video, “Welcome to the 4th Grade,” which garnered millions of views and catapulted him into the national education spotlight. Reed believes relationships mean everything in education and that every child—no matter their race or social status—deserves a fair chance at a quality education. His message is one of grace, love, and equity, and his aim is to rehumanize the learning experience for every scholar, everywhere.
In his upcoming keynote, Being the Educator They Need, Reed will help educators rediscover their WHY of teaching and emphasize the importance of building and maintaining positive relationships with students, both in and outside of the classroom. The session is filled with practical talking points grounded in social-emotional learning, restorative justice, and trauma-informed practices. Each participant will leave with dozens of actionable, relationship-building strategies they can immediately implement in their classrooms.
