"The response to our Understanding by Design (UbD) workshop with Teresa Dempsey was overwhelmingly positive. I have attended a number of workshops facilitated by Teresa and each time I have found her presentation very informative. Teresa excels at making the content (especially UbD!) comprehensible for all participants; she paces the presentation to meet the needs of everyone."

"Teresa Dempsey was an outstanding presenter, extremely articulate and engaged the audience in a variety of ways. The complex topic of Understanding by Design (UbD) was taught in a logical, audience-friendly manner. Teresa was highly prepared and was seamless in the presentation...Overall, the audience made great strides in learning about UbD. This was a most successful experience. I would be happy to recommend Teresa for future professional development."

"Dr. Dempsey is a consummate professional. Not only is she knowledgeable in the implementation of UbD as a framework for classroom and curricular design, but she is an outstanding teacher. It is obvious that she has great experience in facilitating discussions from all types of audiences. She accommodates questions well, provides relevant examples, and has supplementary materials available that help to extend the participants' knowledge."
