Testimonials

My association with April reaffirmed that we can learn from one another productively even if we work in separate divisions. I sought her expertise when I needed to create a curriculum map and she provided invaluable feedback and recommendations that matched well with the beginning stages of vertical alignment in my department. She knows her content inside and out, which grants her excellent insight for others seeking guidance and efficient progress.
