"This course helped me to not only set goals for my personal life but also for my business. It helped me to become more focused and organized. Before taking the course, my thoughts and goals were all over the place. But after answering the questions and doing the lessons it helped me to become more structured, focused and organized."
Anita B., entrepreneur

"I've been reading your stuff since you were a rookie, and I've got to tell you that it has been interesting to watch you develop into a really great writer. You pick very good topics and do a great job of presenting your story. I wish the Times had more writers/columnists with your talent. You have really come a long way, and I enjoy your work. Keep up the good work; your are gifted."

"I thoroughly enjoyed your column today! Several times, I stopped and read parts of it aloud to my husband. ... You have a concise and complete understanding of the challenges facing teachers today. Your piece absolutely hit the nail on the head. Great job! If our legislators had the grasp you do of our flawed system, we would be in much better shape educationally in Louisiana. Thanks for speaking for the educator."
Cathryn H., teacher
