What OTs and OTAs are saying about  Marina's Courses

Marina is a great instructor and she shared lots of relevant information in an understandable manner!

an OT

The course was very enlightening and educational on distinguishing between sensory and attention needs and how to tell the difference based on a child's developmental level and age.

I intend to use the knowledge gained from this course immediately with many of my current students to enhance the effectiveness of their respective sensory strategies in the classroom - thanks for the great ideas!
