Maritza Charris
This was a very meaningful and engaging course. I enjoyed learning about different educators and reflecting on how their ideas connect to my own teaching. The discussions were thoughtful, and the course reminded me how important passion, high expectations, and strong relationships are in education. I would recommend it to other teachers.
