Vanessa Zimmermann
There couldn't be a more timely course for Educators than Being the Change, and our instructor was especially informative and responsive to our need to process and internalize the activities & questions. The book, itself, is a fabulous resource & I'm certain I will be using it for all my classes now & in the future. But, having conversation and sharing insights as a class made it even more applicable to me personally.

This class was fabulous. The assignments are relevant and the ones you would give your students to do. The instructor was attentive and gave great, though-provoking feedback.
