"This was another great course I was fortunate enough to take! It has helped me get excited about teaching again. I can't wait to start school in August with new tools in my belt. Thank you!" --Mary N., NE

"I liked that this course was taught by people that had been in the classroom. They gave me a lot of ideas to use in the future. I thought the textbook used was great at providing examples of lessons for multiple subject areas." --Jon Travis Y., IA
"This class was exactly what I needed to bring more higher-level critical thinking to my lessons. I enjoyed listening to the speakers and thought they each brought a unique perspective to the subject. With this class I now have the three classes required by Augustana University to enter their Master of Education program this summer." --Jennifer S., IL
"Very useful; engaging! Highly recommend." --Mandy S., NE
"This course was another winner for me. It is refreshing to see and hear from a variety of speakers in age, subject area, and experience who all speak so eloquently to the challenges we face-- and who are then able to provide such great suggestions of how to meet those challenges with heart. Suggestions for activities are easy to understand and easier to adapt to wide range of subjects and ages. All of this is done in a team-like approach, which makes it feel like when one of us has something that works, we can't wait to share it and make another teacher's life a little better. You never feel like any suggestion is a "must"-- or that you are stuck in a "Teaching for Dummies" situation. You feel the respect of the people within this organization. This is the best investment I have made since I returned to teaching ten years ago. Thanks for it all!" --Kimberly W., NE
"I highly encourage anyone to take these online video courses, especially this one because you really do gain the knowledge and confidence to implement new ideas in your classroom to better master the challenges that come each and every day with being a successful teacher in today's world." --John G., OH
