Good information

Good suggestions for elementary classrooms. If you teach older students, this is less helpful.

I really like this presenter. She is so easy to listen to and to follow.
Susan – MIDLOTHIAN ISD (verified owner) –
This course was incredible! I think you need to be our kick off our school year presenter because this is information that all grade levels need in order to help kids view learning differently and more positively when they have failures along the way.
Brooke – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –
There were a lot of good things spoken of in this course, but there wasn’t much time for actual application or the opportunity to reflect on how someone might implement this in their own classroom. I also wish there was a Growth Mindset training that focused on middle and high school grades.
Eva – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner) –
It was interesting.
Selene – MISSION CISD (verified owner) –
Very interesting course and I like the different examples she gave out like the popcorn, car, iceberg, Michael Philip, and also different books she mentions like the turtle and the hare. I also like all the visuals she put in the video. I really enjoy this course.
