per usual, you rose to the occasion! The interaction with the young people at
our recent Celebration of Student Engineering was delightful and education-filled.
From the skills you demonstrate with your various yo-yos and tops, to the timely
injection of the science and/or math basis explaining the performance of the
device, the students enjoyed magical moments that blended smiles with
education. As you know, this is a critical element for me, as enjoyment while
learning is an important environment-setting component that enhances the
experience for each learner.
As a former building principal and district assistant superintendent, it brings high
value to the educational environment when kids and adults experience laughing
while learning.
It is hard to imagine that we have been collaborating for as many years as we
have. Your flexibility and willingness to adapt to our needs is always
appreciated, but most importantly, your connections to the multiple science and
technology curriculum benchmarks clearly justifies the decisions to call on you
over and over again.
Thanks for the great work and unique contribution to teaching, learning and kids!

is with the HIGHEST recommendation that I bring to your attention
the school asssemblies of the magnificent Dr. Zeemo. His yo-yo "Art
of Spinning" assembly is the best school production ever brought to
my school in the 20 years I have been here. The good Doctor has
performed at least 10 times in my building and will be here again.
His humor and immediate connection with the students and staff is
a rare trait. In the past he has also customized his program to fit
my needs at Raupp. Bottom line to my fellow principals, "BOOK HIM NOW"!

yesterday Paul Kyprie ("Dr. Zeemo - Spin Doctor") was here doing a
program on the science of things that spin. His program included information
about forces (such as gravity) on things in our daily lives. He used props
that kids identify with such as yo-yo's, propellers, etc. When he was done
with his 40-45 minute show, teachers actually said to me, "Isn't it amazing
that he was able to keep the kids so focused and attentive while educating
them at the same time? He was great!"
I have seen Paul do a couple different shows (including one on electricity)
and he always does a great job. He gets the kids involved and they all walk
out of the assembly knowing more than they came in with. His price is very
reasonable and he's worth every penny we pay for his shows. I would highly
recommend him for any school, K-8!
