    This course was very informative and enjoyable!

  2. Daniel – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    I like that the use of real life experiences are used as examples. It made me reflect on my teaching skills. Have I experienced that, and did I do the right thing. Very much an eye opener.

    I appreciate how they described the different underachievers. This was beneficial to listen to considering that the school that I work for houses low to mid socioeconomic status.
