What Our Clients Are Saying
I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge Michael Eskridge and his company, Advance Innovation Education for their partnership with the Allen Parish School Board. Our School District entered into a ten-week teacher certification boot camp for our non-certified teachers with AIE and Dr. Eskridge. The results of our boot camp were very positive and our teachers benefitted greatly form the program. Dr. Eskridge was very professional and knowledgeable, with practically all of our teachers improving their Praxis scores.
Advance Innovative Education (AIE) allowed me to connect with a fabulous tutor and teacher to prepare for the Praxis exams required for certification in Louisiana. The tutor adapted his teaching style to my individual needs and never fell short of challenging me to build my confidence. As a result of this program, I have a must clearer understanding of what the tests cover as well as where my current knowledge base is, how the questions are scored and how to actually study and prepare. THANK YOU AIE for the support to accomplish my goals!!
Advance Innovation Education (AIE) was the missing link for a small group of teachers in West Baton Rouge Parish who were struggling with creating a clear plan of action to pass Praxis exams required to become fully certified teachers. AIE has become a true partner to our district in helping our teachers achieve their certification goals. The tutors/teachers come to our district weekly to meet with our teachers in small groups for Praxis tutoring sessions and provide individualized progress reports so teachers clearly see how they are improving. We are extremely pleased with the high level of support and customer service provided by AIE.
