“I am 100% sending a strongly-worded email to everyone involved with the teaching college that I attended and recommending they add this to ALL education major maps. Arizona State should be in touch directly. This course taught me ALL THE THINGS that I did not learn either in college or after being thrown into the classroom–CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT, for one!!! This course is a game-changer for newly established educators, and a MUST for anyone who has the desire to teach.” Esther H., NE

This was a great course, and I learned so much. It was amazing to me how much each lesson was related to what I am seeing daily in my classroom. That was the best thing about the course… I enjoyed the course a lot and it feels like it is very closely related to what I am doing on a daily basis. The leadership position I hold is a teacher on our school leadership team. So, it will help me direct all my coworkers down the right path with my guidance. Abigail K., NE

My favorite part of the class was the combination of videos and the book. I like that’s it’s not just one or the other, but both! I’ve taken classes through other companies and I appreciate that only some of the questions give a length requirement. It helped to make my answers more authentic. Angela W., MN.

I thought the material was very useful and appropriate. I like the ease of use of the course, especially since I am an older teacher and technology isn’t always my friend. JeNae K., NE.

This class was very well thought out. I think it definitely directed to my everyday as an educator. There were a lot of new strategies that I plan to implement this school year in my classroom. It also validated a lot for me that I already do and that made me feel really good as a teacher. Jill K., NE.

I liked this course. I found a lot of useful information that I wrote about in my applications and components 2-5. I almost wish I did this course during the schoolyear so I could have written about the results after implementing strategies. Lisa D., IA.

I really enjoyed the ability to work at my own pace, the practicality of course materials, and most of all the price. Michael M., NE.
