Excerpts from GEAR UP Teacher Scholarship Winners
“Thank you so much for this awesome week of professional growth for me. I would not have been able to attend with my own resources, so the scholarship is a great gift for my future students.
As a result of all that I’ve learned this week I believe I can greatly inspire and enhance learning in my students. The MAN learning strategies based on the FADE content and PFLL context will provide a new framework for all of my teaching. I am most excited about the 5 Tenets and the 8 Keys of Excellence.
I truly believe these principles are going to prove to be so powerful in my classroom and our whole school as I share with my principal and colleagues.”
-- Alaire Long
“Thank you so much for providing an opportunity through GEAR UP to attend the 5-day Quantum Learning for Teachers Training. This has been an empowering week for me and all of the teachers who participated.
By giving us a foundation that blends the best scientific brain research with engaging, motivating, and fun teaching strategies, you have made me excited to return to lesson planning, teaching, and interacting with my students in the fall. I even look forward to grading papers and tests to see the growth that I am certain to see.
I am enthusiastic about sharing the Quantum Learning experience with my students and colleagues. What I have learned and lived this week will resonate through my teaching and through my life.
Thank you again, and thanks to all of the Quantum Learning team for creating and delivering such a great program.”
--Barbara Tollison
