“I wanted to give feedback on the totally brilliant course. It has changed both my work and course plans in such a positive way already. I have been able to employ the structure and exercises with great results almost immediately. Dr Sandi Smith was very knowledgeable and was able to customize the whole course to our individual needs. I have recommended the course to some of my colleagues.”
