I like that the course was split up into lessons that could be tackled independently. I didn't like that I was on my computer for all of it, which just means that the book courses will be a better choice for me in the future. I feel like I got several tips or reminders of concrete things that I could integrate into my work and life that will benefit me. Bethanie K., MO.
One of my favorite classes so far!! I always appreciate the format, the topics, and the care that is obviously put into each course. Thanks again! Kimberly W., NE.
I liked this course for its simplicity, and yet it challenged my thoughts and practices as an educator. The way it is structured allowed for continued reinforcement of key concepts. While some of the information was a refresher, it further reinforced concepts that can be looked past as educators. I will be taking more of these classes in the future. Kevin F., IA.
I liked the videos in the course, I felt that they were meaningful and all material could be related to my kindergarten classroom. I enjoyed writing the action plan because it was helpful to apply it to my classroom and put what I've learned to use. Jodi M., OH
This is the second course that I have completed through "Be a Great Teacher", and I have learned so much from each class! The videos are so interesting and applicable to the classroom. This last class helped to show me ways to balance school with home life. It was extremely helpful! Jilane M., IA.
This was my favorite course I have taken so far! Kaitlyn M., MN.
I thought the speakers were great, and had many interesting concepts to add to the classroom. There was nothing that I really did not like. There were many practical ideas shared that will add to the classroom environment. William D., OH.
There were a variety of topics and areas that were covered. Topics are relatable. They ask for your opinions. Some college classes could care less what you think. I like that I can go back and watch a speaker again in case I missed something or interrupted it.
I look forward to using a few new ideas. Thank you again.
This was an excellent class. It gave me wonderful ideas to better engage my students, help them retain information, and enjoy being in my classroom! I also loved that the class provided me with ways to stay fresh both personally and professionally. I gained so much from this class that I can use immediately to improve in both areas! Jill M., MN
I feel like the underlying theme of this whole course was how to be a good communicator (LISTEN) and how important joy and movement are in the classroom. I couldn't agree more. Although I am not a teacher, as a school-based Speech-Language Pathologist these things really resonate with me not only for my students but my relationships with my colleagues and friends/family as well.
