This has been the most fascinating, eye-opening, thought-provoking course I've taken to date. I loved the author's writing, and so appreciated your thoughtful, helpful, timely responses to my assignments. I will encourage all of my co-workers to take this course, and I will hang onto and refer to this book often

Course: WHY WILLPOWER MATTERS: Improve Health, Happiness, & Productivity
with Brenda McKinney

I have taught for many years, and I have been one of those teachers who tried engagement strategies and failed. This class taught me how to improve my teaching, have the whole class and staff working together, engaged, and achieving success both in the classroom and in their lives outside of school. It provided me with the solutions to be successful if I keep trying.

Course: ENGAGING STUDENTS OF POVERTY: Practical Strategies That Raise
with Brenda McKinney

This course couldn’t have come at a better time. I expected the course to focus mostly on my students or my job, but the effects and benefits have been much more personal. One of the greatest gifts this course brought me was in re-establishing a daily habit of meditation, and an ongoing awareness of mindfulness off the cushion. I noticed the results after a couple of months when my job didn’t seem to “stress me out” anymore. I don’t think it was my job that changed, but my relationship to it. This caused me to accept a full-time position working in my current school, and I even found myself saying “I kinda love my job!” My focus shifted from the negative to the positive - and with gratitude, I developed a much healthier relationship to my work.

I felt Charity was a very accessible instructor; I felt very comfortable taking this online course, knowing that she was just an email or message away. She always responded in a very timely manner, and even took the time to get to know me, as opposed to just treating me like a faceless student. She even provided me with additional resources that I could easily incorporate into my class! I learned far more than I expected, going into this process.
