  • Amaura Leesa Delaney
    The class was very informative and helpful. The only problem I had was the other voices in the background of the teachers voice (it was a little distracting). Very happy I was able to hear this class! Posted by Amaura Leesa on Wednesday Oct 21

  • Barry Sims
    I thought that Valerie did an excellent job with orientation. I would suggest, however, that each participant be given a turn, even if only for a minute or two, to try each pod and menu item during the class. Instead, I will be practicing in a classroom by myself. I will not know if there is a more efficient way to accomplish my goals, or even what the effect of my actions will be on my students.

    Valerie was very well prepared for the presentation, showing us all kinds of documents related to teaching and how to use Edu fire. She was very kind and patient with all the participants explaining anything. Her fluency in explaining how everything works told me that she an experienced teacher on Edu Fire and I will come back to more of her classes. Thahk you Valerie!

    Valerie, I thought that your class was just fantastic. You are a very accomplished tutor, and should be very proud of yourself.

  • Ron Smith
    Valerie is an extremely gifted tutor who has the ability to put her students at ease. She was able to keep my attention and is an excellent communicator. She responded to everyone's questions in a timely manner and took the time to help everyone understand the concepts of what she was teaching. I am looking forward to taking more classes from Valerie not only for learning the topics she is teaching but for learning the art of conducting an online tutoring session. Anyone who is new to thius site, students or tutors, should consider taking lessons from her. You will not regret it. Posted by Ron on Sunday Apr 26
  • Yem Kay
    Very good introduction. Some minor suggestions: It would help to use the cursor/pointer more during the talk so we can stay in sync which place on screen is being referred. Another suggestion probably for platform: Having a 'playdough' version of the platform where one play being tutor would be useful too. Posted by Yem on Sunday Apr 26
  • Swarna V
    Good session Valerie, Thanks. It was helpful and would recommend it to all new members. Posted by Swarna on Monday Apr 27
  • Tony Ross
    Valerie is AWESOME! She teaches in my favorite style, very relaxed, like the conversation about what you're learning is not in a classroom, but over a cup of coffee. She even helped me solve an issue after class. She kept at it till she figured it out (which didn't take long). Thanks so much, Valerie! Posted by Tony on Tuesday Apr 28

    Valerie is very helpful and kind - you will certainly enjoy this session with her and learn a lot. There were some problems with the technology at the session I attended but Valerie stayed calm and kept us all moving forward.
