I found that a lot of what I have encountered with my perfectionist students goes along with the research discussed. That made me feel better about being able to discuss with my students.

I loved this course! I have ALWAYS been interested in gifted education, and I learned a lot through this course. I love how the instructor didn’t pidgeonhole beliefs as concrete (such as asserting that perfectionism MUST be all nature or all nurture, etc.) and explored the possibilities for how it develops. I love that we were given useful strategies for helping students handle perfectionism and learn a better approach.
