I think this course is excellent but on some parts it does feel a little off . For example I understand the why we needed the brain anatomy lesson but I do feel like we spent way too much time there.

Joseph – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner) –
While there is information that is definitely applicable in my classroom, the presenter come across as a tad arrogant. As a Special Education teacher, I feel that she inflates certain topics and make “gifted” students seem like super heroes.
Example: “gifted” students are cheetahs. So what are “typical” or “low” students considered?
