  1. Rebecca Mullin

    Pretty good course. Little heavy on the homework but very in-depth and taught me a few things I didn’t know. Hopefully it will somewhat improve my work.

  2. Jo Hauser

    Great course. I started at the beginning and I’m going to work my way through all the lessons. It builds in complexity slowly. I’m really enjoying it.

  3. Andrew

    Very clear diction, and explanations, without seeming slow or patronising.
