What parents are saying after

Michelle's course ...

"I had hoped to learn one thing each class. I learned much more than that, as well as how and what to apply to my child."

"Michelle was awesome ... very knowledgeable and confident in the material! I enjoyed the workshop very much."

"I have used many of the skills and there has been much improvement. I am parenting the child I have and teaching her the skills she needs and discussing expectations with her and compromising so that it works for both of us and we both hold each other responsible for our part."

"There are so many excellent tips and strategies for success."

"Michelle's sense of humor was a real plus."

"I found the class helpful and informative, and the atmosphere was very friendly, encouraging, and warm. I am glad I took the class and sorry I missed one session. Michelle is a good teacher and seems to know the material very well. Thanks, Michelle! I would recommend this course, or working with Michelle generally, to other parents."

"It is worth the time and cost to take this course."
