  7. Ralph – CLEAR CREEK ISD (verified owner) –

    This one spoke to me. Spot on with everything she said about introverts. I’m glad there is a growing awareness that there is nothing “wrong” about introverts and that they are perfectly happy as they are.

  8. Shannon – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner) –

    I must say that this is a course that I feel I took the most away from and actually took notes and can adjust instruction according to finding out additional information about my students and identifying them as either introvert or extrovert.

    Interesting
