“Wow- Thank you for not bringing a one-and-done. Being able to reach out throughout the year and see real growth has been so helpful…and my students owe you a thank you too” -3rd grade teacher from Georgia

“I have never laughed so hard during a PL session. You were so funny and so real. Thank you for being genuine, supportive, challenging, and for saying all the things that needed to be said.”- High school teacher from Michigan

“I could have never done this alone. I was so overwhelmed and then you came in and made it all make sense. Thank you.” Middle School Principal from Ohio

“My teachers stopped listening to me, but you said everything I have been trying to say for years. I kept watching their heads bobbing up and down. They heard you. They agreed with you and now we can work TOGETHER to move them forward.” Curriculum Director from California

“I had no idea how much work was involved in leading change. I was just trying to preach and teach instead of guide and support. You are masterful at that. You were so gentle yet so specific in your guidance. I never imagined we would be this far ahead at this time and you have also helped uncover so much more work for us all. I can’t imagine doing this alone. Thank you.”- High school principal from Oregon

“I have never enjoyed professional development before, but every time you are here I get excited. I even talk to my husband about everything I am learning and I have told all of my teacher friends in other districts about all that we are doing. This is something EVERY teacher needs to be a part of.” -6th grade teacher in Ohio
