She was in Jose Silva's first public class and worked closely with Silva from the onset, assisting with research.
Nelda is the first Certified Silva Method Instructor. She taught art to children for twelve years and used the Silva Method techniques with great success in those classes. A desire to share problem-solving techniques with her students triggered a desire to teach the Silva Method to children.
She has worn many hats in the Silva organization: She was on the instructor training staff for fourteen years, Director of Silva Conventions for five years, and worked with the Silva Education Project on Guam. Nelda has taught the Silva Basic course, the Silva Graduate course, Ultra, Mind 2.5, the Silva children's course, the Creativity Workshop, Positive Parenting Workshop, and the Silva Graduate Instructor training. She has taught in such places as Kenya, Australia, Ireland, France, Netherlands, Canada, Puerto Rico, Guam, as well as in many cities in the United States.

AND VIRTUES AS YET TO BE NAMED!!"
Claiming Our Creative Heritage ~ Silva Stories begins with a short autobiographical sketch that lets the reader in on the fantastic voyages, life-changing events, and wonderful synchronicity that placed Nelda Sheets and Jose Silva on the same path. Her biographical bits about Jose, early-day instructors, graduates of the very first class, and the artist Dord Fitz, are revealing, funny, and sometimes poignant.
