What are people saying about Eduro Learning's facilitated online courses?

5 Star Review

It was a very positive course and, I feel, a great jumping off initiative for more coaching connections throughout our school. We have already started a plan and with a group of us interactively moving, I expect it to continue and take off. Very enjoyable. 

Teresa

5 Star Review

I really enjoyed the course! It was rigorous, practical and I learned a lot. I have lots of ideas to take back to my school and a roll-out plan for my new tech coach role. 

Rikki

5 Star Review

This course really gets you thinking about coaching and how an effective plan requires the skillful use of data about student performance, current needs and expectations in the school and community, school capacity to support certain developments, current teaching practices, and effectiveness of the any learning support program. 

Sarah

5 Star Review

I like the pacing. Great resources and ability to refer back week to week. Teacher connections were excellent. I'd recommend this course to coaches wanting to learn more.
