  1. Allison – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    This course was very informative and presented a lot of fresh ideas for me.

  2. Brittany – ALICE ISD (verified owner) –

    It was very insightful. Loved it!

  3. Megan – BELTON ISD (verified owner) –

    I absolutely loved this course. I do think, because of the amount of material, that it could have been split into 2 or even 3 different modules. Overall, the most beneficial of all courses.

  4. rodolfo – SCHOOL OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DISCOVERY (verified owner) –

    bad

  5. Melissa – HARMONY SCIENCE ACAD (WACO) (verified owner) –

    Nice

  6. Odette – PHARR-SAN JUAN-ALAMO ISD (verified owner) –

    It had concepts for elementary but was more geared for the upper grade levels.

  7. Kyle – CARROLL ISD (verified owner) –

    Despite having taught for years, I think I was not really making progress in learning to differentiate in a full classroom. Small group, yes, but not 20+ students. I have taken a lot of ideas from this course and feel like I can implement some of them immediately and others long-term.

  8. Stephanie – ALICE ISD (verified owner) –

    Informative and engaging!

  9. Mary – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    Very informative

  10. Alejandro – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner) –

    It was a very informative course, in specific when understanding the major differences in tiering and compacting.
