Martha Carroll
Academic Coordinator, Westminster Elementary

” A wonderful, valuable course to learn more about how the brain works and specific special needs. A person will learn the strengths and weaknesses of special needs and we can better teach them and coach them to tap into those strengths and operate in daily life. These are lifelong skills for people with and without challenges.”

Anonymous Course Participant

“Eye-opening, energizing my teaching – “lightbulbs” and very educational.  I truly feel like I will be a more adaptive teacher to all learning styles and help my students become better, confident students.”  On a scale of 1-5 – I learned information that will improve my own job performance – “If I could give it a “10” I would.”
