  8. Analia – UNITED ISD (verified owner)

    I really enjoyed this course because I came to realize that introverts are very successful. It might seem that they are not interested or following during a lesson but their thought process is different from those working collaboratively.

  9. Sandra – WORTHINGTON CITY (verified owner)

    Very informative discussion about the needs of introverts in the classroom.
