  30. Tamara – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    this course was ok. It would have been since for the presenter to focus on one area and dive in deeper of how to accommodate the student in a gifted context. Also, several slides were not included, and I really did not like to pause a lot to make notes.
