What Other Online Teachers Are Saying
"I loved getting new ideas for my virtual classes on Outschool!"
"I absolutely recommend the Google Slides Workshops! It was very educational and helpful."
Kelli-Outschool Teacher
I walked away with a great understanding of how both the students and myself (as the teacher) would experience this awesome tech tool.
"I was able to attend Natalie’s Nearpod workshop last spring and it was so helpful with getting me started in using Nearpod in my online teaching. Before this, I was so overwhelmed with the thought of learning a whole new platform and afterwards I walked away with a great understanding of how both the students and myself (as the teacher) would experience this awesome tech tool. Natalie taught us the basics and even answered all of our more in depth questions so that we had the confidence to create our own lessons after the workshop. I was able to complete my own custom Nearpod lesson from what she taught. My students are in-love with all the interactive features and I love how engaged they are in class. Thanks Natalie for giving me the tools and confidence to succeed on Nearpod!"
Stephanie- Outschool Teacher
Confident and excited to create interactive games.
"I cannot recommend Natalie's Nearpod workshop enough! In just one hour with Natalie I went from being a total Nearpod 'newbie' to feeling confident and excited to create interactive games for my online classes!"
Amy Thomas-Outschool Teacher
Five stars, highly recommend!!!
" I am SO thankful for Natalie's Nearpod workshop!! Tech is definitely not my strong suit, and I really wasn't sure if I would be able to use a tool like this. The way she explained things made me feel so much more confident, and my classes are so much more fun and engaging now! I especially appreciated how she demonstrates what lessons look like from both the teacher and student views. Five stars, highly recommend!!!
