“I loved this course and really appreciated the lesson plan design and video tutorials. I know you mentioned that you did not find much value in "Think Central" but I would have loved a breakdown of the different parts and how/IF they could be used in the classroom or remotely. Thank you, Kathleen, for another amazing class!”

“I think the discussion forum was almost the best part of this course, as it really allowed us to share ideas and delve into the thinking behind the Singapore Approach… Kathleen has been amazing, keeping the course open for me and always responding to posts, reflections and questions thoughtfully and with lots of new ideas! Great course, will be recommending it to others at my school. Thank you!”

“I was very pleased with this PD. Kathleen answered all of our questions and was prompt in doing so. It was set up beautifully. The videos and reading selection were spot on and very informative. I also appreciate Kathleen adding more reading for specific questions we had. I have told my administrator and colleges about how much I enjoyed and learned from this course. Thank you!”

“I loved the problems and getting to try them. I found the workshop on “Board Use” to be something that really made me think.”

“I felt that any questions I had were adequately answered.”

“Information was thorough, clear and well presented.”

"Good Morning, Greg- I just wanted to thank you for presenting such a professional overview of the Singapore Math Program yesterday. As I mentioned, you gave us a lot to think about as we begin to analyze the various math programs adopted in this area. The teachers really enjoyed looking at the materials that you brought, also this committee included Board Members and parents, and they had not seen the materials that you sent earlier this year. I think it was a very professional presentation and I am pleased that the weather and time frame cooperated!”

By engaging committed mathematics teachers with challenging concepts regarding content and pedagogy, the Summer Institute is the perfect transition to going back to school.”

"I just wanted to let you know that I used Mokoto Yoshida's stuff in class and it worked beautifully. Plastic egg carton ten frames with unifix cubes, the magnetic counters critical thinking piece worked so well!The kids really got the concepts and enjoyed the process. He is a wonderful presenter: clear, simple, and smart. Gave me new uses for materials I already had.”
