What Teachers Say
Great class--will spread the word about the next one.
I am morphing! Last night while integrating tech with those marvelous webtools, I began to feel a sense of ease and wonder! I love this course and will recommend it to colleagues.
One of the things I love about this course is the support and the “Just try it” attitude. It appeals to my sense of adventure. I have learned a lot.
