Richard Brockway

Richard Brockway has returned to classroom teaching after a lifetime of real world experience. Rick has been continually learning, educating and working since he was ten years old on his family’s farm. His military and civilian positions—in the United States and overseas—include

After earning his teaching certification, Brockway entered the United States Army where he ultimately earned the rank of Captain. Along the way and after, he taught, trained, managed and led hundreds of military personnel and civilian workers. Today, Brockway’s Tactical Teaching brings that hard-won, real-world experience back into the classroom. It’s needed more than ever. We’re called on to be security guards as much as educators. We must both inspire and discipline, gain and hold the attention of students who are often distracted and detached, and teach them not only how to pass a test but—above all—how to succeed at life.

Rick was himself inspired by his own teachers like Mr. Robarge, who brought eight grade Social Studies to life with storytelling while simultaneously teaching with multiple modalities so the learning stuck.

Rick is committed to leading the way to success for all students. What good is it to get an A in history but fail their future?
