“Thanks for offering this course. I enjoyed the course and it’s contents. It helped me to organize some thoughts for my next school year and remind me of the basics – that never hurts! I loved the practicality of this course. The objectives can be put into practice immediately. Thanks for offering such a great class.”
Rae Ann DeSutter, Argenta, IL
“This class was very helpful in giving ideas for me to use in my classroom. I liked that the ideas were very practical and easy to implement. I know that the materials will benefit me as I plan for a new school year in my parent communication, discipline techniques, and my appreciation of my students. I think the biggest impact will be in all the extra little activities I am able to include throughout my groups.”
Kristin Van Zee, Oskaloosa, IA
“I enjoyed this course. I felt it was beneficial and I actually got something out of it that was useful and that I will use in my classroom. Most of the other graduate courses I have taken were a lot of busy work and big concepts that were not applicable to teaching. This class actually has real-life concepts that were usable.”
Kayla Reed, Minatare, NE
“Teacher Toolbox 101 gives new and experienced teachers/coaches awesome strategies to bring to their classrooms on day 1 of the school year.”
Penny Patrick, South Sioux City, NE
“I enjoyed taking this class. I liked going at my own pace. The DVD’s were easy to watch and understand. I will definitely take another class from Educational Resources. My husband and I have each taken two. Thanks!”
Cathy Larsen, Atlantic, IA
“Teacher Toolbox 101 was an excellent graduate level course. It provided me with countless activities that I can begin using in my classroom immediately. These activities will help to engage, inspire, and motivate my students.”
Jessica Maseberg, Mitchell, NE
“I thought this was a great way to earn graduate credit hours. I have never taken a video course and now I know I would enjoy doing more in the future. It has been a very positive experience. Everything was laid out nicely, which made it easy to take notes nad answer the questions. The videos were interesting to watch and full of ideas that you can go straight to your classroom with. Some ideas presented confirmed that I have been doing some good things already. This made me feel good. I am excited to start my new school year with the action plan and application ideas.”
Leanna Johnson, Alliance, NE
“I thought that this course was very informative and a great way to reflect on some of the things I do and what I can change. As a teacher I need to remind myself that how I teach is as important as what I teach and that I can be a positive influence on young minds. This type of course is so different from actually being in a classroom but I find that with time and economic restrictions it is a wonderful way to take a class. I have taken a few online and do not like that format – I enjoy this a great deal more, being able to watch the videos and read when I have the time is priceless and I think I get more out of the class.”
Karen Horky, Fairbury, NE
“I thought this course was very informative. It offered useful and practical strategies that can easily be applied to a classroom in a minimal amount of time. I enjoyed taking this course because I could work on it at my own leisure. This was a big plus as I have a young family and I didn’t have to be away from them while I took a college class. This course will benefit me in my third grade teaching position because it gave me wonderful ideas on how to activate my classroom and get my students up and moving. It also gave me techniques on how to manage conflict and work with parents. These are two very difficult areas that teachers have to deal with, but I feel confident that I will be able to handle any situation in a positive, calm and professional manner from now on.”
Tawnya Bass, Alliance, NE
“Teacher Toolbox 101 was a very rich course. It provided me with a lot of useful information that I can use in my classroom and out of my classroom. I truly feel that I learned a lot of activities I can do with my students that will create a more positive, motivating atmosphere. This course is great for any classroom level teacher and I feel it will lead to a more successful classroom.”
C. Birindelli, Tumwater, WA
“I thought the class was very informative. The ideas were relevant to the grade I teach. The videos and reading materials were very motivating. I am excited to implement the ideas!”
Shelley Baumgartner, Little Falls, MN
“Teacher Toolbox 101 gave me so many different ideas to use in and out of the classroom. It made me more excited for the upcoming school year and I will share many of the strategies I learned with my colleagues!”
Christy Kreutzer, Hastings, NE
“I have taken many of these courses! I have enjoyed every one! Next week I start teaching summer school and I am going to begin using many of the ideas that this course has inspired me to do. This course motivates and inspires me to get ready for the school year! Thank you for creating these courses. I will continue to spread the word on your courses!”
Kaci Kearns, Mitchell, NE
I felt this course was well worth my time. The videos were well done and very informative. I found myself pausing, rewinding and rewatching a lot. There was a lot of useful information and ideas that I am excited to try. Time went quickly when I was working on this course. I will definitely take others.”
Toni Andreasen, Kearney, NE
“The video course Teacher Toolbox 101 is just that – a collection of great strategies to use in the classroom. The ideas presented are valid in any classroom setting and are a good reminder of what we should be doing on a regular basis.”
