Our mission is to make good teachers GREAT by providing high-quality professional development courses. The co-owners of Excellence For Educators are educators ourselves; a classroom teacher and a school administrator. We understand teachers' unique challenges in a classroom, and administrators’ need to grow school-wide capacity.

Ms. Gaspar, 1st grade teacher
I have enjoyed your Strengthened Sense of Total Well-Being course. I learned a lot about making healthier choices, and the work was just the right amount. And I especially love the automatic portfolio feature.
Ms. Domingo, 10-12th grade Teacher
The Creating Responsible Learners PD course created by Excellence for Educators is truly teacher friendly! For those desiring to earn PD credits and/or interested in learning something new, this course is for you! The lessons, opportunities for practice, and reflections will help you elevate your teaching skills without added stress!
Mr. Borell, PE Teacher
The reason why your course was the best one I've ever taken was because of how organized the class was, how easy it was to create the portfolio, and the level and the quality of the feedback that I was given when submitting assignments. The portfolio and the captions are often the hardest things to put together when taking PD courses. Your feedback and the way you helped with not only the captions but putting together the portfolio made this class educational without all the drama of creating that portfolio.
Ms. McDonald, EL Resource Teacher
I really enjoyed the course. It was just the right combination of self-exploration, collaboration with peers, and application. I happen to be doing a PD session for new teachers in West Hawaii and I would love to recommend your course to them!
Ms. Rothdeutsch, Kindergarten Teacher
I wanted to thank you both for creating a meaningful course that was filled with valuable information. This course was a good reminder of what is most important to me -- my well-being! The coursework was also just the right amount and manageable. You made it seamless to get the work done, and I'm sure every other teacher, appreciate that!
Ms. Williams, 6th grade teacher
I am truly mind blown at the growth I have developed throughout the course of this professional development. I never thought I would be in such a positive mindset. Overall this course significantly altered my perspective on life and truly improved my well-being.
Ms. Koge, 3rd grade teacher
You've been so helpful and accommodating. I really appreciate your patience and understanding throughout the course. Means the world.
Ms. Wells, 1st grade teacher
This course was wonderful. I have been recommending it to everyone at my school.
Mr Schumacher, Counselor
I really appreciated the" Strengthened Sense of Total Well Being". As a result of that class, students took personal responsibility for their own behavior plans which was much more effective than teacher built plans. I'm really looking forward to taking "Creating Responsible Learners".
