Excellent Course, Highly Interactive and Practical

September 10, 2025

I really enjoyed this course because it’s well-organized and easy to follow. What I appreciate the most is how interactive it is, which makes learning dynamic and engaging. The practical exercises and activities helped me understand the concepts better and retain the information more effectively.

As a suggestion, it would be great to have a summary or a quick review quiz at the end of each module. This would help reinforce the key points and ensure all the information has been absorbed.

Overall, I’m very satisfied with the experience.

The poses of Maria were very entertaining

April 17, 2025

The training was pretty straight forward and understandable. The only issues I had were you can’t rewind the video, only restart the entire clip which means if you missed one detail you have to sit through the entire clip again for that one moment. Another issue I had was certain modules would have severe delay from the audio to video, and refreshing the page did not help the issue.
