  15. Katelyn – CINCINNATI CITY (verified owner)

    This course was good. There was a question on the quiz about Academic Achievers. The correct answer was using mistakes as learning experiences. However, there was another answer that mentioned praising efforts. Both are listed on the Type 1 Academic Achiever slide, but choosing the answer that had both of them mentioned was incorrect. That was confusing.

  16. Tonia – Centerburg Local (verified owner)

    I liked the presenter’s style in this course. It also hit home-she is discussing kids in my classroom.

  17. James – RIPLEY-UNION-LEWIS-HUNTINGTON LOCAL (verified owner)

    interviewers ask questions to learn more about you and to find out things other than what may be on your application or resume. Interviewers may ask about your course selection to learn more about your personality, interests and goals. This question may help them gauge your interest in or passion for a particular subject or field.

  18. Gretchen – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner)

    You had a lot to cover and was hard to really let them all sink in

  19. Becky – Centerburg Local (verified owner)
