  1. Mary – HPS – HOUSTON NORTH (verified owner)

    Very informative

  2. Kristin – Napoleon Area City Schools (verified owner)

    This course had good information and ideas that are helpful when working with 2e students.

  3. Scott – BEXLEY CITY (verified owner)

    Folksy, hoplessly-out of date, full of pseudoscience. Just one example, there’s no such thing as Irlen Syndrome. It has been repeatedly debunked by researchers. The summary of diagnostic criteria for some disorders does not match what is currently listed in the DSMV. I would hope that the person delivering this content would have an updated version if he is still presenting.

  4. Diana – UNITED ISD (verified owner)

    Great but sound quality needs to be improved.

  5. Jill – CARROLL ISD (verified owner)

    I thought this was very beneficial for teaching all students.

  6. Frederick – EAST CHAMBERS ISD (verified owner)

    Great

  7. Belinda – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner)

    I really enjoyed learning different strategies from this training. I look forward to implementing some of these ideas in my classroom.

  8. Marlene – HILLSBORO CITY (verified owner)

    not a good course. the instructor basically just read the notes.

  9. Liza – LA FERIA ISD (verified owner)

    The course describes the different characteristics of each learning disability, and strategies that we can use in the classroom to help these students.

  10. Brian – DRISCOLL ISD (verified owner)

    Humorous and informative. A focus on empathy.

  11. Natalie – GRAND PRAIRIE ISD (verified owner)

    I enjoyed getting to step in another person’s shoes to explore the simulation and understand how they may think differently.

  12. Arianna – SAN FELIPE-DEL RIO CISD (verified owner)

    excellent ideas, age appropriate for any classroom

  13. Brandee – BOERNE ISD (verified owner)
