LouAnne Johnson Biography
Renowned public school teacher LouAnne Johnson is known for her dynamic approach to education. A former Marine Corps Officer and US Navy Journalist, she has successfully transferred her disciplined military tactics to the classroom, engaging students others struggled to reach. Johnson's breakthrough methods not only increased student self-esteem and academic achievement but also improved class retention rates. Her bestselling novel, "My Posse Don’t Do Homework," inspired the movie "Dangerous Minds," starring Michelle Pfeiffer, depicting her tireless efforts to uplift a group of challenging students.
Johnson is an accomplished author of 11 books, including "Teaching Outside the Box: How to Grab Your Students By Their Brains," "Muchacho," and "That Darn Donkey!" Her works, targeting both educators and young readers, embody her educational philosophy—encouraging perseverance and self-belief amidst adversities. Her latest titles, "Kick-Start Your Class" and "Muchacho," continue to offer insights and inspiration to a diverse readership. Johnson’s writings reflect her humor, practical strategies, and ability to connect with her audience, echoing her successful teaching methods.
As a speaker, Johnson delivers motivational talks nationwide, drawing from her extensive experience to address contemporary challenges faced by public schools. Her presentations, such as "Teaching Outside the Box," "The Power of Choice," and "Develop Your Dangerous Mind!" utilize personal anecdotes, humor, and practical advice to engage and inspire educators and administrators. Recognized for her impactful speeches, she has earned accolades from various educational conferences, including a standing ovation at the Wisconsin Association of Middle Level Educators event and positive feedback at the 2006 OSBA Convention. Johnson continues to be a pivotal figure in education, advocating for effective and innovative teaching practices to empower both students and teachers.

LouAnne Johnson Speaking Topics
Witty, entertaining and inspiring, Johnson shares the best of the life lessons she has learned while pursuing her "impossible" dreams. Her latest dream, an audio book narrated by her fictional bilingual character, Eddie Corazon, former juvenile delinquent and current poet philosopher of Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Eddie's poetry will inspire students of all ages to reach for their own dreams.
Johnson takes the audience behind the scenes for a look at the metamorphosis from the nonfiction book My Posse Don't Do Homework to the semi-fictional movie Dangerous Minds. This talk features karate and kissing in the classroom, Miss J's take on racism and respect, candy as a motivational tool, inspiring reluctant readers to tackle Shakespeare, the poetry project and Emilio's real story.
With humor and passion, Johnson outlines her plan for saving our public schools, using common sense to issue "royal edicts that are in the best interest of the children of this nation and not in the best interest of politicians." For example, Queen Johnson will require that every elected government representative in this country must spend two full weeks in a public school classroom teaching from the curriculum and materials available – and living on a public school teacher's salary. Although Johnson's edicts are not meant to be taken literally, her message is: our public school system can and should be saved.
A highly motivational presentation that often inspires audiences to laughter and tears, Johnson shares her journey from Caucasian small-town Pennsylvania to multicultural inner-city California, and the experiences that shaped her teaching philosophy. She attributes her success as a teacher to the "unteachable" students who taught her how to teach them. Johnson outlines the lessons she learned from those students, as well as the classroom situations that inspired those lessons and the strategies that teachers can use to motivate students to choose success over failure.
