I'm at the part where you start singing the Ariel/C7 song and I am almost moved to tears at the amount of effort and care you put in (with this video and all the other videos/resources) to help information stick in exhausted, NBCOT-fearing students' brains. OTMIRI YOU ARE A TREASURE THAT MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS!!! THANK YOU!!!

[elizabethoneill]

As an aside from my first comment, if anyone needs another way to remember that Ariel is C7, remember that her father rules the 7 seas :)

[DianaLopez-sxix]

Please come teach at my school!!! You would make the best professor. No one's ever taught occupational therapy the way you do and your teaching methods are brilliant. Thank you for being our greatest cheerleader, advocate, teacher and friend! Love you OT Miri and so happy you're back!

Just finished watching the video. You have an incredible skill and talent for explaining concepts in a way that's easy and fun to understand. You make the information come alive and I'm always impressed with how well your organize your content using real life examples to make the information stick. I've watched all your videos and love them all, but this is probably my favorite. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. It does not go unnoticed and it's very much appreciated!

Miri, I just passed my NBCOT with a score of 521 on my first try! You were my savior during studying!!! Thank you!

I am an OT student and was assigned this video to watch for my adult intervention class. All of our classes have turned into online classes because of COVID, and this was such an uplifting and awesome video to watch and learn from. Online learning has been difficult, but you made learning so enjoyable and interactive through this video! Thank you for your resources!

[Raller]

Thank you so much for everything Miri! I used your videos for 2 months to help me prepare for the NBCOT exam and I just found out today I passed!!! You were an instrumental part of this accomplishment and it only felt right I come back here to say thank you before I begin my OT journey.

OT MIRI, I am on OTA student, and have began studying for the NBCOT. I plan to take the exam in the fall, and your videos have helped me so much! Thank you so much for being an additional resource during my OT journey!

[hinakausar]

i just love this video ... no book or other resources have explained this topic in such a unique and fantastic i love you for

[nataliegarfield]

Totally random side note but to remember that C5 is the level associated with Vinnie the Pooh (and thus that the functional outcome is elbow flexion, etc.), I realized that the roman numeral for 5 is V, as in Vinnie. Unsure if this silly tip will help anyone but I thought I'd share it in case it does. This NBCOT has so much to know on it that I'm always happy to hear any mnemonics that I can!

[rachelperez]

Miri! I found out this morning that I passed the NBCOT on my first try!! I could not have done this without all your videos! I watched your videos RELIGIOUSLY. I am similar to you where learning has always been difficult for me, I am the student who is always at the bottom and the last to finish. This was the first EVER big exam that I passed on my first try Thank you so much for your videos to help me through the NBCOT study process!!!!

[veekay]

OT Miri! I passed my exam because of you, you made everything so easy to understand. Thanks!!

[casiecurry]

You have a beautiful voice!! I take my certification exam TOMORROW and your videos have been amazing refreshers for me. Thank you for this information and all the work you put into your videos!

[morganvaughn]

This must have taken long to make! Thank you for going to so much trouble! Watching your videos helps make learning fun and interesting!

[elizabethoneill]

I really needed this not only because the information is easily digestible and engaging, but also because you make these videos feel so personal and make me feel so much more confident in myself and my abilities. Thank you for being an island of positivity in an ocean of test taking anxiety. <3

[asmrpjm]

I'm in tears reading these comments. Thank you so much. You remind me why I wanted to be a cota in the first place. I had viral encephalitis and was in a coma for three weeks. I went through so much therapy and when I felt better I said I want to give back and being a cota was how I found I could do that. I finally found my place in the world but I've been worried about the test. I feel lost and so overwhelmed about studying. Now that I found your videos, I have a great hope that I can pass this test. Thank you so much

[misschanhauying]

This video is so clear and useful, especially with the use of cartoon characters. Thank you!

[itzdasha]

Thank you so much for these videos. They have been so helpful, during my study journey. I just found out I passed the NBCOT exam.

[rinnieran]

Less than 2 weeks out from my exam and I felt like I was hitting a wall tonight, I decided to take a break from practice tests to watch this video and your kind encouraging spirit gave me so much hope again! I appreciate all the work you do, you have helped so many. You are a very special individual Miri! I am incredibly grateful for the care and consideration you put into your videos <3

[kdibscheerleader]

Thank you so much! Watching this video actually showed me that I know more about SC injuries than I thought awesome video!!
