About BeCool: Elementary
| I used the BeCool product with severely emotionally challenged children in elementary school and I felt it was very beneficial to the children. |
| - Anne Wise, Administrator/Counselor, Las Vegas, NV |
| The kids love Chester! A unanimous thumbs up from all age levels. |
| - Kelly Chicas, Counselor, Albuquerque, NM |
| I use the BeCool series to teach conflict resolution skills to second graders. The feedback I have received from teachers, students and parents has been overwhelmingly positive. The curriculum is instructor friendly, informative and fun for the students. I have also had great success with the BeCool video series in small guidance groups. |

| These are great! The kids just love Chester and can relate to him. They love to cuddle out stuffed Chester. I work with 3rd-5th grade high functioning autism students. Looking forward to having the DVDs instead of Videos! |

| I have been using the BeCool program for six years. Parents, children, and teachers all think it is superb. I am in a K-1 building with 700 students. The children all come back and rave about learning how to BeCool. |

About BeCool: Middle School
| Just a quick note to let you know how thrilled I am with the Losing It! Program. Your teacher guide is excellent. I have a 6th grade teacher anxious for me to begin using the series in his room. I also plan to give it a try in one of the special education classrooms when they come back on track in July. |

About BeCool: High School+
| Having used BeCool for over 8 years, I’ve liked how it employs a cognitive-behavioral tool for teaching assertiveness as a mode of anger management for developmentally disabled adults in my state forensic setting. |

| I have used the Be Cool series and have been very pleased with the results. |
| - Kathy Peters, Teacher/Counselor, Angola, IN |
| I have used BeCool in another school, and it is fantastic for student interest and results. It is one of the best conflict resolution/bullying tools I have seen in the last 25 years of my work in public schools. All grade levels benefit! |
| - D. Weaver, Counselor |
| The BeCool series is wonderful! Not only are the video segments a good example of how to use the curriculum, but the lessons are already planned out which saves an incredible amount of time. |

| I found this program to be very good...well laid out, easy to use, and effective. |

| BeCool is an excellent program! |
| - – Courtney Smith, K-12 Counselor, Covington, KY |
| This series combines captivating graphics, impactful mnemonic devices, and the proven effectiveness of Assertion Theory. Kids teaching kids is a powerful concept that James Stanfield employs to great effect in the BeCool videos. I am pleased to be able to endorse them. |

| In 30 years of teaching, I’ve never seen anything that deals as effectively with teaching the skills of coping with everyday conflict situations as the BeCool series. |
| - Carole L. Soden, Teacher |
| I especially like the way anger is approached from 3 angles: fair, unfair, and dangerous. I have never before come across material that covers it in this way- especially teaching children what to do if anger directed at them is fair. |
| - Judy Lancaster |
| [I] love the BeCool series and want to order it for my new school to continue with the program!. |
| - Jackie Howard, Principal, James Ardiel Elementary; BC, Canada |
| I thought the BeCool series had a relevant message, with an updated style that the students responded to. It was easy to use and offered useful instructional guidelines. |
