moved fast
Elena – SAN BENITO CISD (verified owner) –
this was a very detailed explanation of T-tess evaluating system
Tracy – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
This course is wonderful and very informative but unfortunately it doesn’t have the subtitles that I can follow. It does have the notes but I have to pause and read it then watch the video. It would be great if it does have the subtitles.
Lindsey – KERRVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
I thought the training was clear and direct. The information was helpful to me, and I learned a lot from it. Two thumbs up.
Luisa – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
Helps us understand the T-TESS process
Victoria – KERRVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
I think this course was a simple and streamlines view of what it is like to get a T-TESS observation.
Jose – DENTON ISD (verified owner) –
I think this course if great and it is beneficial to someone who is new to teaching like me.
Alyssa – DENTON ISD (verified owner) –
I feel that this course has a lot of good information, but that some of the questions feel repetitive.
Keri – BROWNWOOD ISD (verified owner) –
This course was very helpful.
Joshua – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
I think it’s a great course, but it would have been good to see how a really good teacher handles a classroom in a high school setting in which students are more likely to be on their phones and disengaged at times.
Sarah – SPLENDORA ISD (verified owner) –
The training is very informative and thorough. Everything was relevant and I did not feel like any part of the training was wasted time.
Enjoli – CEDAR HILL ISD (verified owner) –
I loved the slides and the videos that went along. I am a visual learning first and then hands on learner.
Abbey – ROYSE CITY ISD (verified owner) –
It was very informative, without being overwhelming.
Tracy – DENTON ISD (verified owner) –
It helps.
Taylor-Claire – LAMAR CISD (verified owner) –
Great information!
VaNeda – KERRVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
It was very interesting and information was given in smaller chunks and easy to follow. It was information that I needed to know. I was very curious about TTESS when my principal told me about it and I was confused as to what to do. Now I am more familiar with the process and less afraid of what I need to do.
Alethea – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
I actually liked this training and the way that it was broken up into manageable chunks. Honestly, I would like to have gone through the highlighting and evaluating language among more T-TESS domains. I know it’s time consuming, but it would have been nice to have that option if we wanted to do that. Analzying rubrics as an educator helps me, but doing it alone is not as fun. I also liked the reflection questions throughout and that were imbedded in the modules.
Susan – HUNTSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
Great. Wishing the ability to access the links had been available to me at all times. Also wish I would have been able to stop (to answer the phone or change the laundry) and resume on all parts, not just some.
Stefanie – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
The training brought new understanding to my first year of teaching.
Lana – BROWNWOOD ISD (verified owner) –
I learned the information, but the required responses were sometimes not needed or seemed redundant.

This course has great modules that outline everything.
Alyssa – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
The course was engaging and that made it go by quicker.
