- This workshop has offered me an efficient way to offer students effective feedback. Michael’s easy-to-learn feedback prompts allow me to pinpoint the exact areas for needed improvements in student writing. Dr. Matthew McConnell
- This is the most effective and applicable professional development I have attended — ever! I feel empowered to teach students how to read carefully, think deeply, and write clearly. I can’t wait to start the next school year and get my classroom-turned-lab underway. Thank you, thank you Michael and Ian! —Tracy Seagraves
