  1. Cristina – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    Great information with examples

  2. Terry – MCKINNEY ISD (verified owner)

    This was an extremely informative lesson. There is so much to learn that you might have to watch the lesson multiple time since you definitely want to take in as much as possible.

  3. Raul – UNITED ISD (verified owner)

  6. Leslie – DUNCANVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    It helped to give me a better understanding of my special needs kids.

  7. Lance – DUNCANVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    It was the worst course I have ever seen in 20 + years of teaching. The presenter was arrogant and his presentation did not align with the title. It should have been titled, “Working With Students With Disabilities.” It had absolutely nothing to do with teaching gifted students.

  8. Jennifer – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    Very informative

    This was a great course because I learned some characteristics of some disabilities that I did not know before.

    I would recommend this course.

  18. Tina – SCHERTZ-CIBOLO-U CITY ISD (verified owner)

    I really liked the definition for each disability and the facts under each to get a better picture of them.

  19. Jessica – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    It was very interesting. I learned about Irlen Syndrome which I was not familiar with. I also liked some of the suggestions on how to teach the whole class about what it looks and feels like to have these different disorders.

  20. Melissa – MANSFIELD ISD (verified owner)

    Amazing module on 2e learners, their workings, what works for them, what works against them, why and how and when.

    Great explanations of each disability.

  23. Judith – LAREDO ISD (verified owner)

    The course was very informative in helping me understand the different learning disabilities and the characteristics of each. I think it better prepared me to know how to deal with children facing these challenges and how to better reach them for a more effective learning experience.

  24. Kim – PROSPER ISD (verified owner)

    I do no think the instructor stayed on the subject of twice exceptional children. He gave facts about disabilities but not how to work with them in the classroom.

  33. Kimberly – YOUNGSTOWN CITY SCHOOLS (verified owner)

    I felt this was a very engaging training with a lot of take away strategies to use with my twice exceptional students. I also feel I understand my students a lot better because of the information presented.

    Got to the point and added a bit of humor

    There are a lot of excellent approaches highlighted in this course review

  46. Sherryl – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner)

    Some of the advice was more personally philosophical than what I was looking for. I prefer the more practical approach. But there was information about some of the disabilities that I didn’t know.

  47. Rebecca – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner)

    highly informative and helped clarify misconceptions.

  48. Erika – RAYMONDVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    Found it very interesting.
