The UCLA NBPTS Summer Institute is a “must-do” if you are planning on certifying in the coming year. I cannot imagine going through this process without everything I’ve learned these Saturdays. The readings and the conversations have helped make this so much more manageable. The strategies and readings alone will make you a better teacher, even if you decide to wait and certify later.”
