"The class, Creating an Environment for Success, was a course that taught practical ideas that could be incorporated into a classroom setting easily. The ideas and strategies presented to help increase learning and motivate students to learn to their highest potential were useful. I believe by making the learned changes to my classroom environment I will see an increase in academic progress on the part of each student as well as a greater love for learning on the part of each student. By putting the various ideas into place, I feel I can make a difference in the lives of students who will become excited, lifelong learners." Kim Tarr, Milford, NE
"I felt this course was very practical. I will be able to incorporate many of the concepts and ideas in my classroom and in the practice room." Terry Gorecki, Sauk Rapids, MN
"I enjoyed this course very much and plan to take more classes from Educational Resources. I am always looking for ways to enhance my teaching and encourage my students to want to learn. I have been rejuvenated from this course and am looking forward to going back to school in August and trying some of these new ideas. Thanks for putting excitement back into my teaching. My students thank you too!" Melanie Yoder, Metamora, OH
"I am now ready for school to start. I am really excited to try some things that were covered in this class." Brian Jorgensen, Colome, SD
"This course was exactly what I needed to add fun and excitement to my classes. It gave practical and useful ideas to use in the classroom. It was not full of technical language which would not be applicable to teaching. There was a good variety of information from each video. This made the class fun and interesting. I would recommend this class to co-workers." Dianne Schons, Cedar Rapids, IA
"This was probably the most informative and interesting video course I have ever taken. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the information was presented and the speakers were outstanding. I appreciated the fact that each segment was the best resource that could be found and not just the same person trying to cover all the information. I never felt like I was being inundated with mundane facts. This was definitely my favorite video graduate level course. I have taken numerous classes in this manner but never felt as motivated and enthusiastic to try to make myself a better teacher/coach. I gained so much great information by taking this course. I will be implementing many of the ideas when we begin school in the fall. I also gained a lot of knowledge that will help me in my personal life also." Kristin Putnam, Hillsdale, MI
"This was the third course I have taken through Educational Resources and found it to be educational and inspirational. The presenters provide information that will and can be used by any educator. I found it well worth my time." Thomas Schoenfelder, Oxford, NE
"Each course I take through Educational Resources of MN, I really enjoy. I feel the information provided in the books and the DVD's is very useful to me in my roles as teacher, coach, and activities director. The topics covered are definite areas of interest and concern. I enjoyed being able to work at my own pace in the comfort of my own home." John Gustafson, LeClaire, IA
"I found Creating an Environment for Success an excellent course to take. I thought the information was current and very applicable not only to coaching, but to the classroom as well. I would recommend this course to others, especially if they would like to build a positive mental attitude and use it towards building a stronger team and/or classroom." Michelle Schnoor, Norfolk, NE
"This is my 3rd class I have taken through Educational Resources and I loved this as much as the others. It is so exciting to take a class and be able to apply the teachings to both your classroom and athletic field." Jennifer Koehler, Nebraska City, NE
