Reviews for this Online Course
- I liked the narration with the content to read. Posted by Angel on 16th Jan 2014
I liked the narration with the content to read. It helped me focus better. I also liked when I answered questions at the end of each section if I didn't quite get it it would go straight to the content to help me remember. All in all it was a really straight forward training that helped me reflect and be able to get refreshed as a teacher!
