Yes. I have done so. I do find that Ron Clark succeeds because he is passionate, inspiring, and creative. Therefore, it wasn't long for me to see copying someone else's style only goes so far. I have used his ideas, but then modified them to fit my classroom, personality, and goals. That has worked so much better. He is more strict than I want to be with students. I do agree though with high standards and his creative styles to reach students. Ron Clark + Your Own Creativity = Very good results
