    Respectful presenter, good material.

  2. Trish – PLANO ISD (verified owner)

    This was an excellent course that helps you realize that perfectionism is behind many of the struggles we face with gifted students. By slightly altering the way we say and do things, we can better set up our GT students for success.

  3. Caitlin – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    Easy to understand and had lots of great tips

  4. Melissa – Pilot (verified owner)

    I am also a recovering perfectionist, so I was glad to have tips to help me, so that I can, in turn, help my students and also help my parents to help their children.

  5. Jeremy – VAN WERT CITY (verified owner)

    Interesting.

  6. Stephanie – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner)

    My takeaway is to get students to understand that mistakes are okay and give several examples of talented people who have made alot of mistakes but didn’t let them stop them from trying.

  7. Peter – TEAYS VALLEY LOCAL (verified owner)

    Loved this course. Lots of interesting information, great anecdotes, and practical solutions. I learned a lot from this course and was engaged the entire time. Would recommend it, especially if you’re working with students who have perfectionist tendencies. Glad I took this one!
