Here's what educators are saying...

More than 2/3 of participants rated the usefulness of my workshops as a 9 or 10 out of 10.​

Intensives move the needle.

Faculty intensives differ from a typical training.
I facilitate a high-leverage activity on a focused topic.
Teachers create something amazing during the session.
