  1. Teresa – CORPUS CHRISTI ISD (verified owner) –

    This was a very interesting course. I recognized a couple of my students with the behaviors mentioned. The strategies given to work with twice exceptional students can be used for all students especially the age that I teach. I teach kindergarten. This grade-level is where we notice the differences between children that parents have not yet picked up on.

  2. Naomi – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner) –

    Great course

    Ok

  6. Jennifer – CARROLL ISD (verified owner) –

    I appreciate the breakdown of different disability areas and how those differences relate within a gifted/talented mind!

  7. Sara – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner) –

    Didn’t learn much I didn’t already know. Was pretty surface level.

  8. Dawn – TOLEDO CITY (verified owner) –

    Great ideas for how to look at the 2e students. Also a good way to enhance what the child deals with in order for we as the teacher to do better with.

  9. Carey – TOLEDO CITY (verified owner) –

    good course

    This is always one of my favorite topics to learn about. I also loved all of the instructors stories and examples of activities for the different disabilities.

  13. Ember – FORT STOCKTON ISD (verified owner) –

    You told me about Autism but what are the strategies to help autistic children.

  14. Jessica – TOLEDO CITY (verified owner) –

    very informative

  15. Mary – HPS – HOUSTON NORTH (verified owner) –

    Very informative

  16. Kristin – Napoleon Area City Schools (verified owner) –

    This course had good information and ideas that are helpful when working with 2e students.

  17. Scott – BEXLEY CITY (verified owner) –

    Folksy, hoplessly-out of date, full of pseudoscience. Just one example, there’s no such thing as Irlen Syndrome. It has been repeatedly debunked by researchers. The summary of diagnostic criteria for some disorders does not match what is currently listed in the DSMV. I would hope that the person delivering this content would have an updated version if he is still presenting.

  18. Diana – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    Great but sound quality needs to be improved.

  19. Jill – CARROLL ISD (verified owner) –

    I thought this was very beneficial for teaching all students.

  20. Frederick – EAST CHAMBERS ISD (verified owner) –

    Great

  22. Marlene – HILLSBORO CITY (verified owner) –

    not a good course. the instructor basically just read the notes.

    The course describes the different characteristics of each learning disability, and strategies that we can use in the classroom to help these students.

  24. Brian – DRISCOLL ISD (verified owner) –

    Humorous and informative. A focus on empathy.

  25. Natalie – GRAND PRAIRIE ISD (verified owner) –

    I enjoyed getting to step in another person’s shoes to explore the simulation and understand how they may think differently.

  26. Arianna – SAN FELIPE-DEL RIO CISD (verified owner) –

    excellent ideas, age appropriate for any classroom
