  1. Rose – HARMONY SCIENCE ACADEMY & SCHOOL OF SCIENCE – HOUSTON SOUTH 101846 OR 101862 (verified owner)

    It is all right but slightly redundant, as in the same concept was said in many different ways. Ironically I felt like a bored G/T student.

  2. Jacklyn – BELTON ISD (verified owner)

    Wish I could go deeper with it. Great information

  3. Katherine – BELTON ISD (verified owner)

    Great information. She was very in tune with how teachers feel and what they face each day, but still had great feedback to give.

  4. Adriana – HARMONY SCIENCE ACAD (EL PASO) (verified owner)

  7. Cristina – HARMONY SCIENCE ACAD – SAN ANTONIO DISTRICT (verified owner)

    I like that I was introduce to a good amount of tools that I will be able to utilize and implement in my classes. I did not anticipate that I would be engaged as I was with the session. I was very refreshing.
