"Roberta, thanks for working with the kids.  We were able to see the impact of your work with the kids when we went to the regional competition.   It made a huge difference.  They were awesome in their final performance and very proud.  The skills they learned from you really enhanced their performance and their experience of their performance.  Thanks!"  --Susan Drebing, Destination Imagination team leader
