Gail Gives Presentations that Teach
She is passionate about sharing and welcomes the
opportunity to discuss working with your group.

Gail took her first speaking class at the age of 5. She has numerous speaking credentials and her audiences are always highly moved.

She incorporates her enthusiasm with drama, stories, music, and visuals to share numerous lessons about life and the Christian walk. She builds on her challenges from teaching blind children to read Braille and make it through the mainstream in public schools.

She holds a masters degree from The University of Texas and for eighteen years she worked as an educator. Gail is a published author and presents workshops throughout the United States. Her presentations are intriguing and practical and her personality is genuine. She is actively involved in Toastmasters and speaks to a variety of groups. She can speak just as comfortably to large audiences as to a few. Her home is in Texas with her husband, Sam. They each have 3 grown children.

I have attended many seminars and workshops during my thirty years in the corporate world, some of which were for professional
development while others addressed personal growth and relationships. There are always those few programs that stand out and Gail Showalter's seminars are most definitely among them. Gail shares great information in a format that is easy to comprehend, extremely well organized and as entertaining as it is educational. Two thumbs up!!  Ann Thompson, Beaumont, TX
