  9. Jessica – LUBBOCK ISD (verified owner)

    I found it to be very informative. I liked her pacing and explanation of the topics. She was very easy to listen to. I found that planning for the GT student is not as hard as I thought it would be. Yes it takes effort and a little extra planning, but overall, I feel I have a better grasp of the subject.
