  • This course is very well laid out. I gained more knowledge in this course and a much better breakdown of skills than I did in reading instruction course for my degree.
    Stephanie L.
  • This was excellent information about reading and literacy. But as a secondary educator, I feel like most of what I learned is applied in early stages of development. I would like to see more content on how to help middle and high schoolers with reading strategies.

  • This was the best course I have taken from Professional Learning Board. The content was very relevant and practical. I hope there is a teacher’s guide to this info for easy access to use some day. I hope it can be put into many reading curriculum guides so teachers can easily use.

  • Great information. I really enjoyed the "see it in action" classroom videos. The videos helped me to connect with what I was learning. Having the opportunity to be taught through modeling and this visual component made this an effective training for me.
