PROFESSIONALS’ TESTIMONIALS
“Earl RickmanThere are several nominal speakers. Then there are phenomenal speakers, like Shanedria Wagner, who deliver unforgettable, empowering, and informative seminars that will galvanize attendees to act. Her passion for education is only surpassed by her expertise in the area of instruction. As a tireless crusader for children who has crisscrossed the country for decades, I am proud to give Mrs. Wagner my stamp of approval. Any organization or school that secures her services is also securing the future of our youth.

“Carolyn WileyThe products are wonderful! I use Edutain with Music to teach math skills such as multiplication facts and problem solving strategies. All of the students love the Believer's Chant. It's the BOMB! I teach each of your reading songs. My favorite tune is the Main Point, which helps students to understand the main idea and enhance their writing skills. The Groovin' Grammar CD helps students to expand their vocabulary, use the parts of speech to create meaningful sentences, and identify the pitfalls of English usage. This is my testimony. Mrs. Wagner is truly a blessing from GOD. For the past ten years, I have faithfully used her products and strategies. My students have been very successful on the TAKS, Stanford 9, and Stanford 10. The passage rates of my pupils have consistently remained between 95 and 100 percent. Thanks,

“Carlos BandaThe one-on-one assistance and the phenomenal modeling that you offered in my bilingual classroom helped to transform me from a rookie to a Teacher of the Year turned instructional coordinator. I owe it all to you, since I implemented every strategy (classroom management and instructional) that you modeled. When others observe me in the classroom, they are watching the fruits of your labor. You are truly a master teacher who helped both me and my pupils to master challenging concepts in an engaging and memorable way. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

“Dr. Shera D. Carter SackeyShanedria Wagner is a dynamo. As a literacy coach I found myself using many of the strategies found in the variety of workbooks she has created as I worked with struggling learners. The students loved the integration of rap and movement into their intervention lessons. The thing that I liked the most is that the students were highly engaged, they utilized critical thinking skills, and it was culturally responsive and relevant to their every day experiences.

“The late Dr. Asa G. Hilliard, III (Nana Baffour Amankwatia)You embody all of the imitable characteristics of a master teacher. I STRONGLY urge you to capture your strategies on video so that the masses can duplicate and utilize your original, yet universally- applicable strategies. You are undeniably one of the best educators that I have ever observed; studying footage of your work with children has become a requirement for my collegiate students, consequently. May you continue to answer your calling of preparing and empowering all children.
“Gloria ChenYou came along and single-handedly lead us to success. You showed our third grade bilingual teachers how to teach reading strategies efficiently and methodically. The confidence of our students rose, as well as our test scores. You have truly offered dynamic, applicable strategies that have become part of my teaching style.
3rd Grade Bilingual Teacher, Cornelius Elementary School, HISD
“Dr. Evette Shelby-KingAny principals looking to grow their bilingual teachers as well as increase academic achievement for their students would truly benefit from Mrs. Shanedria Wagner’s consulting firm. I used her to increase my TELPAS scores and build my bilingual and ELA teachers’ capacities. Her tool belt is vast and has great resources in ELA and math as well. She worked relentlessly and was readily available for all of my bilingual and ELA teachers. Comuniquemos is one of the reasons my previous campus became a B-rated school.

“Jarius DellevereDear Mrs. Wagner: I would like to take time out to thank you for your time and peace of mind. You expressed the importance of knowledge and education, in an interesting but serious manner. The five hours I was in your presence seemed like years or maybe I was just wishing it was. Anyways! You may have gotten paid, but you really had a successful impact on many. As obvious as it may have seemed there were many that needed it but didn't take advantage of it. You are a great encouragement. You will always be remembered as someone who cared.
Thank you
