I strongly believe that Jeff Beedy is the finest educator (and human being) I've met in two decades of teaching and doing educational research.
Pulitzer Prize Winner Dr. Robert Coles
At Harvard, Jeff Beedy studied with renowned child psychologists Carol Gilligan, Lawrence Kohlberg, Robert Selman, and Sesame Street founder Gerald Lesser. Jeff taught Social Reflections of Literature for Pulitzer Prize winner Dr. Robert Coles.
