-Melanie Stivers, 5-8 Principal, Springfield Christian School, Springfield, IL
This is the best training I’ve been to. Every minute was enjoyable and educational. I feel better going into the school year and am excited to teach the Singapore way. It was life changing and mind blowing!
-Penny Hagerman, Interventionist, 3-5, Vanguard Classical School West, Aurora, CO
Truly appreciated the lesson planning information. The teacher’s guide does not have enough information to assist teachers with teaching strategies. I feel I can teach better and help my students better understand and build on the concepts. Awesome Class!
