I have truly appreciated the instructors willingly and generously sharing their wealth of experience. Thoroughly enjoyable course. Most useful for my future foray into FDR practice. Having a small, diverse, supportive, fun group of instructors and students added to the experience. Excellent presentation from instructors, and it was wonderful to have instructors with so much practical experience. It was wonderful to be so supported and to be able to learn so many practical skills. Humbleness and knowledge go so well together, so thank you both– excellent course!
