Fernando – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
This course is to encourage continuous improvement.
Montica – COMANCHE ISD (verified owner) –
It was a very lengthy course. Three hours of sitting and watching is unnecessary especially when we don’t have much time at home. I think it could be cut in half and still be effective.
Brittany – DUNCANVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
I think the course did a great job breaking down the elements of the T-TESS.

This course is a very helpful resource for teachers going through TTESS for the first time.

This course was very informative, thank you! I would say it isn’t terribly concise, but still informative.

This was a great introduction to T-TESS because I had seen the rubric before but seeing everything at once can be overwhelming. I liked the videos and examples provided in this training.

Needs more examples of an actual teacher being evaluated, followed up by the feedback from an observer going over the material.
