The course was very informative, however I would have liked to be able to ask more specific questions about what the student might be seeing when he looks at a worksheet with a turned head ( looking through one eye), for instance. One eye being suppressed- is that able to be improved/ corrected?

Ms. Hellerstein was a motivated, enthusiastic presenter who delivered all her content on vision therapy in an easy-to-understand manner. She highlighted her passion for visualization strategies to help in all school-based content areas and the importance of collaboration with teachers and other professionals for improved student success, which I strongly agree with. I visualize every time I do a math problem, spell a word, or go back to remember a story's sequence of events and details.

I have attended other continued ed classes on vision and my son has participated in vision therapy in the past. I felt like Dr. Hellerstein's explanations were very clear and easy to follow. I could visualize myself doing the screening and treatment ideas she shared because of the clear way in which she presented the material. She didn't try to mystify or over-complicate these things but made them practical and attainable and I am grateful for that.
