“I was very impressed with the course because of how directly it affects what I do on a daily basis. Every video and text had something in it that I have or will use in my job as an educator and coach. I honestly wish I could review these films every couple weeks to continue to refresh my conscious about how important my role is in many kids lives! Great course!”
Chad Denis, Waterboro, ME
“The course Creating an Environment for Success was a pleasure to be a part of. The video selections were pertinent to my classroom and athletic situation. The information was well presented and easy to understand. The presenters provided me with ideas and strategies that could be implemented easily into my existing class structure. I enjoyed the ability to set my own pace for the course and the video format fit in well to my busy family life. I do believe the strategies taught to me through this course will help me raise the level of achievement in both the class room and on the athletic field.”
Ed Kuhn, Rockford, OH
“Creating an Environment for Success provided practical strategies and concepts that I am excited to use in my classes. The course re-energized me and I look forward to taking many more.”
Julianna Lince, Columbus, OH
“I appreciated being able to take this 3 credit video class because I was able to work on it at my own pace. Having the freedom to study when I had the time made it easier for me to focus on the information without outside pressure. I enjoyed receiving information and strategies from a variety of individuals because they all have their own perspectives to share. Although I have been teaching for many years, I found some good ideas and challenges for me in the course. I have recommended the course to colleagues of mine.”
Kathleen Peterson, Janesville, WI
“I really enjoyed taking the course, Creating an Environment for Success. Many of the ideas and concepts will be very beneficial to me as a coach, teacher, and parent. Like everyone else in our society, my schedule is very busy, and I really appreciated being able to be flexible in my coursework. If I would have been taking a similar graduate course through our local AEA or the University, I definitely would have missed some of my daughter’s activities, but I did not have to miss anything, because I could make my own schedule.”
Melanie Barz, LaPorte City, IA
“As I have now completed my third course in the ‘Be A Great Teacher’ program, I am continued to be amazed at how well these courses have provided me with fresh, new, stimulating insight and ideas to help me continue my quest to become a better educator and coach. I thought this class was excellent! I believe the knowledge I’ve gained from all the topics covered in this course to be so beneficial and I know that it has provided me the opportunity to go out and inspire! I will continue to use this information the rest of my life! Thank you for that opportunity.”
Dale Nordick, Moorhead, MN
“I thought that this course was informative, inspiring, and educationally exceptional. I have taken many graduate courses over the last ten years both in my major and out of my major. This is one of the best if not the best class I have taken. I loved the format of being able to schedule your own class time and not having to travel. The information and presenters were very good and I was pleasantly surprised at how relevant and motivating the lessons were. Usually, I look to at least take one good thing away from a class. I can honestly say that I have four areas of focus that I take away from this class and will use in the future.”
Josh Rhode, Eagle River, WI
“I entered the class, Creating an Environment for Success, with an open mind. I was not sure if I was going to be able to apply the strategies discussed into my environment. I was happy to discover that there were many techniques that I could use not only with my students but with staff as well. This course was one of the better classes I have taken in my graduate work because it was easy to fit into my schedule and it covered more than just classroom and coaching – it discussed students, parents, teaching and coaching. All of these areas are in my everyday life. Once again, this course was awesome and it provided me with tools that are workable in the classroom as well as the court. Thank you!”
Kim Romanchik, Independence, OH
“Once again, I was not disappointed by the quality of a course offered by Educational Resources. All of the video lessons and text assignments were well planned and delivered articulately by professionals in the field of education. The coursework in, Creating an Environment for Success, was interesting and entirely relevant! There is absolutely no busy work in these courses. They are all informative, fun and thought provoking. Thank you very much and keep up the good work!”
Jon Rice, Hingham, MA
“This is the third course I have taken from Educational Resources. I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every course I have taken. I found, Creating an Environment for Success, to be very practial and relevant to me as a teacher and as a coach. I have taken other courses and walked away thinking how does all of this apply to me and how did it make me a better teacher. I never have to ask myself those questions when I take a course through Educational Resources.”
Daniel Burreson, Mineral Point, WI
“I truly enjoyed the course, Creating an Environment for Success. Once I got started I couldn’t stop. I actually looked forward to working on the course. This is by far the best course I have taken for renewal. I will be taking more and encouraging others to take the courses as well. I can’t wait to try out all the new stuff I learned.”
Angie Pink, Independence, IA
“The course, Creating an Environment for Success, is a must for all teachers, administrators and coaches. It reinforces what students and athletes need as a foundation for success. It is a review of a practical blueprint for the success of our students. It doesn’t involve more money, but yet a purposeful and conscious approach to the development of our students. The course will make you better in all aspects of working with students.”
Christopher Bell, Lake Orion, MI
“I enjoyed the course and I’m excited to start school in the fall. I know that I can do a better job of creating that ’smalltown’ atmosphere in my classroom. I appreciate the way this course made it easy to apply the ideas and strategies to my classroom. The ideas that I learned are something that I will be able to use in my classroom right away as I begin the new year with my students. My students and I will benefit from this class because everyone wants to have fun and be involved in the learning process.”
Ronda Spanel, Norfolk, NE
“I really enjoyed taking this class as I felt it was applicable to my job as a guidance counselor and a varsity volleyball coach. The videos were informative and presented in a manner that was easy to follow. I walked away from this course with a wealth of knowledge and activities that I will be able to use this fall. This is my second class and I will continue to take more as it is the best graduate level classes I have found!”
Mandy Tidwell, Lewistown, OH
“I thought this course was very interesting, highly motivational and enjoyable. I enjoyed the variety of materials. This is the first graduate level course I have taken and the ease of having 4 months to complete it on my own time was fabulous! I will put into practice many of the strategies I learned from this course.”
