    This was a good course for explaining twice exceptionality and different learning styles. There was nothing about 504’s so I don’t know why that was in the title. But I felt I learned helpful information and will recommend this to my colleagues.

  9. Lisa – HALLSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    Even though I already know most of this because of having lived it with my own children, it was still interesting to hear a break-down of the topic
