    Enlightening

  2. Mona – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    This course was very informative.

  3. Elizabeth – CARROLL ISD (verified owner)

    The ideas and concepts presented seem valid and indeed are well supported with a variety of sources. However, with a state emphasis on passing standard exams there is little time to implement character and spirituality or indeed natural talent that sparks the love of learning. Time is a finite resource.

  4. Jasmine – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    This course has given me a great perspective.

  5. Alejandra – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    The videos and slides presentations were great!
