If I’m being honest, I thought doing this on-line was just going to uninteresting and boring. The truth is, the more I watched and listened, the more I got sucked into what Dr. Juntune was saying! I ended up taking away so many great things from this training that I’m actually excited for my GT students and teachers this year. Even before completing the training, I began discussing mini-courses with my teachers!
