Meet Ron Shuali – The Guy Behind Behavior Mastery
Ron Shuali, M.Ed., isn’t your typical behavior expert. He’s the kind of guy who breaks down big ideas in a way that actually makes sense – no jargon, no fluff, just real tools that help kids and teachers thrive.
Ron created Behavior Mastery after a powerful experience teaching a YOGARATE class. During his first class, a student challenged his authority, and frustration hit hard. But instead of reacting, Ron had a moment of clarity – the child wasn’t acting out against him; he was communicating the only way he knew how.
That realization hit home. Ron saw himself in that child – a kid who just wanted to be understood. That moment shifted everything. He realized it wasn’t about fixing the kids – it was about changing how he connected with them.
Since then, Ron’s made it his mission to help educators rethink classroom management. As a Behavior Expert for the National Head Start Association, he’s trained thousands of teachers across the country on how to create calmer, more connected learning environments by leading with empathy.
His work is grounded in brain science and real-world experience, but what makes Ron stand out is his heart. He believes every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and supported – and that when we focus on connection, better behavior naturally follows.
That belief continues to inspire his work, helping educators create classrooms where everyone feels respected – and learning comes naturally.
