NTI "WoW"

Wow, is all I can say to describe the experience that I had this summer. NTI has made me such a better teacher. My students are even amazed, I can tell. In the beginning I really didn't know how much I had learned, because I was so overwhelmed with all the administrative paper work. Once I got into the class work with my students and opened my bible, I was like wow, this stuff really works.

I have use the take five to help me in the last five minutes of class. I also enjoy the transfer in. Last year I had problems getting class started, the transfer in has taken care of that problem. I also like recapping that puts a final close on your lesson, by reinforcing learning. The close out has helped me to keep focused by telling the class what I am going to teach them the next day.

All over, this experience has been great, and I can't wait to see what we are going to learn next.

The classroom management strategies really work. When I have students talking and I stop and tell them "they might not feel like what I'm saying is important, but another student might feel like it important. You should see the look on their faces.

My students says "Mrs. Hunter, your strict now, you don't play. I say "No, I'm just better.

I am so thankful for NTI!!!
