"Best PD I've been to all year. This information was so necessary and relevant. I am just sad that I went 3/4 of my year without these tools!" Katie Aldridge, Park Avenue Elementary
"Thank you so much for an outstanding session. I learned a lot myself. You made a powerful impact on my teachers! In fact, one 5th grade teacher left the training, went home, and within hours revised her lesson plans for this week based on information she gained from the training. I'm looking forward the second session." Erica Gee-Bradley, M.Ed. Principal, Galloway Elementary School, Jackson Public Schools
"This was the best training I have had. I implemented some of the skills taught within the same day of training. It was just a basics class but the presenter did AWESOME! I have used SMART Notebook everyday since this training." Rebecca White, Conway Public Schools
"Ms. Julie Sanford is an exceptionally dynamic, energetic and charismatic speaker. Her presentations of the capabilities of interactive technology are impressive, informative and hands-on and capture the imagination of her entire audience. The thorough preparation of each of her classes is indicative of the professionalism she brings to the table on a daily basis. A pleasure to work with." Jim Crisafulli, Military Instructional Developer (via LinkedIn)
“I feel that this was the BEST SMART training I have had! After this workshop, I am motivated and less fearful, and I am very excited about using my new found skills. I am ready to create lessons for my students!” Nancy Parker, Shelby County Schools
"Julie is a great trainer. She has trained our teachers twice, and their reviews of her are excellent. Our teachers ask for her by name, and look forward to her trainings. They describe her as being very knowledgeable, patient with slower learners, and she is very creative with her presentations. We look forward to continuing to work with her in the future." Karen Horne, Clinical Systems Application Coordinator/Analyst - Intermediate at University of Mississippi Medical Center (Via LinkedIn)
