I learned a lot from this course. It also helped me feel better about myself as a teacher, as I already do some of the strategies discussed in the course. There is definitely a lot of great information given in this course and the presenter did a wonderful job at delivering her message. She is personable and relatable, so it is a lot easier to take in and understand the information she is giving.
