This course was really helpful.

It was a good overview of T-Tess.
Holly – NEW BRAUNFELS ISD (verified owner) –
The sound did not work all the time and the course would open a new window every time I went on to a new section. This made the online course not very user friendly.

Very enlightening!
Leonard – ROBSTOWN ISD (verified owner) –
Very Informative

I felt that this course was very informative and made a clear example of how the T-TESS ratings are administered.
samantha – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
Although it was lengthy, it provided great information and details. I would like to see how T-Tess on Eduphoria is filled out from SLOs all the way to the growth tracker because as a new teacher that part is very overwhelming.

I found this course very enlightening and clarified some misconceptions I had about T-Tess.
Shannon – HUBBARD ISD (verified owner) –
It was fine. However, it was frustrating that some of the responses were timed and cut me off mid sentence.
Gloria – GARLAND ISD (verified owner) –
Excellent presentation; provided a great introduction to T-TESS since I am new to the GarlandISD.
Grayson – DUNCANVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
This was really good for an asynchronous online course. At times I felt that it moved a little slow, but I tend to move too fast (generally speaking), so, that may not necessarily be a bad thing.

The course clarified all my T-TESS questions and fears.

I enjoyed being able to watch a good lesson and see how certain things can be handled and taught with good classroom managment
Sara – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner) –

Christopher – HURST-EULESS-BEDFORD ISD (verified owner) –
Was a great overall course.
Dathan – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
The pace was brisk initially, which kept me on my toes, and then evened out as it continued. The instruction was involveed enough to be helpful. Perhaps Dimension 4 could be better addressed.
Lizette – LAMAR CISD (verified owner) –
This course was very informative, and it helped me understand the process of the T-TESS rubric and how I will be observed by my administrators. It also helped clear some of the uncertainties I had based on the process of reaching the day of my observation. I feel more comfortable now that I know that I will be able to have a pre-conference to review my lesson and then a post-conference to discuss the observation.
Lauren – WAXAHACHIE ISD (verified owner) –
I thought it was good. I was not a fan of the time it took to complete though.

The modules were excellent. Learning the domains is much improved by using these modules. I thought the teacher scenarios was an excellent example to improve on.
Morgan – WAXAHACHIE ISD (verified owner) –
