I have really enjoyed Anna’s course so far! I have found her delivery really thorough and easy to understand. She is approachable and friendly which really helps set a positive atmosphere to learn in. All work has been communicated clearly and opportunities to ask questions or have things reiterated have always been given, ensuring we are all getting the most out of the course. The only negative side I would mention, which isn’t at all impacting my ability to learn or the course content, is the amount of paper being used! To make the course more accessible to all learning styles, it would be good to have an online option available to follow along with, instead of it being paper based.

Great. Getting photos of slides really helps. May ask if I can record audio of classes (discussions)?
