Thank you for providing quality Graduate classes at a reasonable price and have reasonable expectations for course work. My first Be a Great Teacher course was with Tom Held. It was a great course and he did a great job with it. My 2nd course was through DVDs because of Covid. My last 2 classes have been through the new online format. It’s great to be able to be able to complete these courses at my own pace considering how busy my life seems to be now. Thank you. -Ryan Z., OH

“The best thing about this course is the useful information and ideas. So many times you take classes and you walk away with nothing. That will NOT happen with this course. Course work within the book or the videos help you understand how you can use what you are learning. How to blend it into your everyday teaching to make yourself a better teacher. I am so glad I took this class and will be talking Teacher Toolbox 301 in the future!”–Heather W., NE
