    nice course

  2. Amy – SPRING ISD (verified owner)

    This course is very high level. I really enjoyed the content though, but I am sure it isn’t for everyone. A handout that breaks down her talk would be very beneficial.

  3. Neda – PEARSALL ISD (verified owner)

    The “lecture” part of this course was WAY too long.
    Please intersperse the quiz questions into the lecture part o f the class.
