Review for All Kinds of Minds, Durham, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a special education teacher, much of my training was to focus on the difficulties my students experienced. The All Kinds of Minds training gave me a new perspective, by reminding me that everyone is a mixture of strengths and weaknesses, and that the key is to identify and work with all aspects of a students developmental profile. All Kinds of Minds did not just stop with the change of mentality, but provided clear and specific methodology to achieve this goal. I learned to better understand my students, and how to better intervene in order to help them achieve their potential. In addition I served as a mentor to general education teachers, and they found these ideas and tools extremely helpful in better addressing the needs of all the students in their classes, with completely different profiles.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I am better able to understand and address the needs of my students (and my own children!) I also see how other teachers who are provided with this training become more effective teachers.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the great training and materials provided.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

dedicated, knowledgeable, and committed to their goal.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

train all the teachers in American and make school more productive for millions of students!
