What Participants Say...
I am on fire to teach literature. Martha Escobedo gave us a treasury of teaching tools that will potentially ignite imaginations far and wide and inspire students to celebrate the life of the mind! This woman needs to write a book.
Martha Escobedo was absolutely fabulous! She gave us a huge wealth of information. I feel very prepared to teach this course for the first time. I am excited about it! I would recommend her course to other teachers in my district. Gracias, Martha!
Martha was amazing! She is very personable and extremely knowledgeable. I have learned so much from her this week that I will use next year. She has inspired me with all her great ideas and examples. Thank you, Martha.
