  1. Emma – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner) –

    Awesome! I just wish it could be completed in-person instead of virtually.
    I think you should let teachers know up front where the handouts are. I was looking and looking.

  2. Margaret – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner) –

    I felt it was lengthier than it needed to be with all the stories.

  3. Cheryl – MIDWAY ISD – WOODWAY (verified owner) –

    This really helped me with differentiation techniques that I can use in the classroom.

  4. Eduardo – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner) –

    The presenter was excellent. Material presented was extremely useful. This is a must for all teachers especially those who teach the Gifted.

  5. Stephen – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner) –

    I really enjoy this course. It’s an an opener for me in terms of differentiation.

  6. Ashley – HARMONY SCIENCE ACAD – SAN ANTONIO DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    I enjoyed the course as it provided some great examples of how to differentiate in the classroom including links and website suggestions for resources.

  7. Cheryl – BURLESON ISD (verified owner) –

    Good information

  8. Virginia – MCKINNEY ISD (verified owner) –

    I think the course was well written and paced for all levels of teachers. This course applies to teachers of GT students, but also to any students. The self-paced nature of this course allows for you to contemplate the material instead of having to absorb it all in one sitting.
