Michaela – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
It was very informative on all aspects of T-TESS! I know why it’s structured the way that it is, and am confident in my abilities to prepare for it this year.
Sarah – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I have used T-TESS throughout two school years. This training either affirmed, taught, or explained things I had questions about in my mind.
Bethany – GAINESVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
This course is thorough and detailed, but is slightly outdated visually.
Jacqueline – Alief ISD (verified owner) –
I found this course to be very insightful, I enjoy learning for it.
Mark – SAN FELIPE-DEL RIO CISD (verified owner) –
The verbiage used in this video was over the top. For a first time teacher I really believe it should have been in a face to face environment for more one on one interaction.
Emily – CORSICANA ISD (verified owner) –
I thought this course was very well laid out and not as overwhelming with all the information that needs to be given.
Vicki – OVERTON ISD (verified owner) –
I think it was very thorough, but didn’t necessarily need to be. I liked seeing the info, but didn’t like having to take so much time to pretend to observe myself.
Grace – WINFREE ACADEMY (verified owner) –
It was long, but thorough.
Abigail – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I think some of the questions didn’t have enough of an explanation of what they were expecting as a first time teacher.
Sharon – WINFREE ACADEMY (verified owner) –
This is a good training to help us learn about our new appraisal process.
Victoria – FT SAM HOUSTON ISD (verified owner) –
This course is perfect in understanding the T-TESS observation process. I have taught in other states, where we used a similar observation tool called ADEPT and the training wasn’t clear or even offered online like this.
Casey – ANNA ISD (verified owner) –
It was very informative of what the T-TESS standards are and how to get better with them.
Aileen – AZLE ISD (verified owner) –
This course was very informative, it was just a bit long.

It helped me prepare what is coming when I start teaching. I’m glad I can receive feedback since I am teaching on my first year.
Macy – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I thought this course was very informative and taught me several things that I can implement in my classroom to further student and teacher growth.
Alexis – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I loved the way the information was chunked. I liked being able to replay information. I just wish it gave more than 5 minutes when analyzing the descriptors and key words in module 2. It submits after the time is up even if you didn’t get a chance to type a response.
Kristin – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
I thought it was excellent. I enjoyed being able to see the presenter while also viewing the power point slides she referred to. I appreciate that the questions were read to us, as I am doing this training at the end of the day when my eyes & brain are foggy!
Barbara – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
Very interactive.
Julian – Alief ISD (verified owner) –
I certainly enjoyed the T-TESS orientation because it provided me exceptional insight for not only an educator’s growth but for our students’ growth. By facilitating ways to improve our practice, our educational community becomes an essential tool in order to reach meaningful learning experiences for today’s youth and for everyone else involved. We must all work as a team to exceed our expectations.

It was better than many online courses I have taken. I like that the videos play directly one into another (as much as possible, not always) and the reflection questions are integrated into the content. The course was short and sweet.
