The class was so organized, comfortable, interactive and full of new information. The instructors didn’t try to force their style on us, they just shared a lot of super helpful info in a well
Orchestrated format. Yay!
I was inspired every day by Dianna and Leslie and the other participants. Being a teacher myself, I expect the instructors to be prepared, organized, clear, provide a variety of ways to learn. This course did all that. It was fun and I left with many starts and many ideas.
Both instructors were excellent. Lots of helpful new material. And so much fun!
