"Courtney does a wonderful job communicating and engaging her audience. I really enjoyed listening and learning today. Courtney has definitely inspired me to move to the next level of 6+1 teaching."

E. LaVelle

"I'm a special ed teacher, and I felt this would be just ‘another workshop’ that would not apply to me. Instead, I found easy, practical ideas that I can use with my pull-out students."

K. Meyer

"Courtney is very energetic, knowledgeable and is sincerely interested in seeing us succeed! As a new teacher, I can appreciate and am inspired by her enthusiasm!"

B. Manis

"Courtney was well-spoken and had a great rapport with my students. She knows what she's talking about, and it shows in her meetings with teachers. It made me less apprehensive to teach the 6 Traits and tackle mini-lessons."
