Keith Deltano Biography

Keith Deltano is a teacher, educational comedian, and curriculum creator whose personal experiences with learning disabilities and perseverance inform his work with young people. Deltano was retained in third grade due to reading difficulties and was diagnosed with dyslexia, ADHD, and audio processing disorder. He experienced bullying as a result of these challenges and used comedy as a coping mechanism, which later became central to his career.

After high school, Deltano joined the Army and served as an airborne military police officer. The structure of military life contributed to his personal growth. He earned a degree in elementary education and began teaching students facing academic and behavioral challenges similar to those he experienced. Deltano received the Teaching Excellence Award for his work in improving academic achievement and reducing behavioral infractions among at-risk middle school students. He also received the National Impact Award for his efforts in parent outreach and education. Deltano has been listed in Who's Who of American Teachers and Outstanding Young Men of America.

Deltano uses interactive comedy to address topics such as bullying, cyberbullying, racism, prejudice, body image, suicide prevention, and drug and alcohol prevention. He provides student assemblies, teacher professional development, and parent workshops focused on creating positive and safe school cultures, mental health awareness, and suicide prevention. His mental health assembly, "Break Out of the Box," covers depression, anxiety, eating disorders, suicidal ideation, and self-harming behaviors. Deltano manages his own experiences with OCD and bipolar disorder and has applied these insights as a paratrooper, classroom teacher, parent coach, academic competition team coach, and educational comedian.

Deltano's creative work includes the CD "Why Are You Looking at Me Like That," which received recognition from the National Association of Christian Comedians, and the video "The Outrageous Keith Deltano," which earned a Bronze Award at the Columbus Film and Video Festival. As the author of the "Anti-Bullying Curriculum," Deltano has developed resources used by schools nationwide. His approach helps students identify bullying behaviors, including exclusion and social media misuse, and provides strategies for intervention and support.

With more than three decades of experience working with at-risk youth, Deltano teaches coping skills and encourages teens facing mental health challenges to seek help. He advocates for embracing learning differences and encourages students to recognize and utilize their unique strengths. Deltano's background in youth education, mental health advocacy, and bullying prevention, combined with his use of comedy, positions him as a recognized voice in the field of youth education and mental health awareness.
