  • "I didn't realize how effective remote instruction could be. Had I know how easy and personal the classes would be, I would have signed up before now. I'm glad I know that it's this easy and VERY effective. I wished my college courses could have been set up like this. It allowed for me to learn at my pace but having an instructor on the line made sure that I was able to get answers to questions in real time. It was GREAT. I hope to sign up for more classes after today. I will also spread the word to my supervisor to have other cities do the same thing!"

    I had no idea how effective distance learning could be. If I had known how easy and personalized the classes would be, I would have signed up earlier. I'm glad I know it's so easy and so effective. I wish my college courses could be set up like this. This allowed me to learn at my own pace but having an instructor on the line ensured that I was able to get answers to questions in real time. it was very nice. I hope to sign up for more classes after today. I will message my supervisor to do the same in other cities!”
