This was quite frustrating. I had to take modules multiple times and the percentages still do not reflect 100%.
Marie – WINFREE ACADEMY (verified owner) –
This course was well organized and executed. I enjoyed the video examples and liked that I had to respond to questions to keep me engaged. I also appreciated the ability to download materials I need for future reference.

This course was very helpful and I was able to pause and go back to something if I missed it. They make you feel like the T-TESS is positive and not supposed to scare you.

I did learn quite a lot but I had problems with having to go through the first 3 modules several times before it would move up to 100%.

Lot of information to take in a short period of time. But very insightful and rewarding for a novice teacher.

helpful

I think this course explains clearly all the modules.
Lauren – Alief ISD (verified owner) –
I love how this course is short and sweet.
Sophie – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
It answered most of my questions. Since I am a first year teacher I thought I got enough information to not overload me but to give me a general idea of a T-TESS. If this were shortened to where we didn’t need to watch and script a video I believe the training would still be effective.
Ricardo – Alief ISD (verified owner) –
This course was a great insight to what T-TESS is and how it was made to better educators. Coming from a first year teacher, this course could not have explained it any better.
Elizabeth – Alief ISD (verified owner) –
It was organized really well. The only thing is I don’t like the person reading the question it was loud when I was trying to answer the question.
Ryan – MOUNT VERNON ISD (verified owner) –
The course was very enlightening to the T-TESS process, especially as a new first year teacher.
Erin – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I thought it was great! Very easy to understand and broken up very well into short sections as opposed to long 30-45 minute videos one after another.
Vicki – GOLIAD ISD (verified owner) –
Pretty good, but I was told one hour and it took me at three. I think the people that told me to take the course were off in their estimation of time.
Claudia – LIBERTY ISD (verified owner) –
This course was really informative, I enjoyed it. Thank you
