In short, he is himself a wonderful teacher, and I can’t recommend his course highly enough!”

“Josh has spent many years in the classroom, and just as many becoming an expert on the research on teaching and learning. So he is a master at translating complex theories into pragmatic ideas for the classroom. He is also a gifted storyteller, inviting his students to join him on adventures. So if you’re interested in a lecture series that is equal parts theoretical, exciting, and useful, I can’t recommend Josh more!”
