learned a few things but it was very short. Also he always kept on saying how "throughout this course we will talk a lot about..." ( a few things, don't remember) but it never came... so I guess there are more courses to take but this one was pretty average.

By Pam Holland on 9/15/2020

It is early so far, but I find him really easy to listen to, likeable and lots of good tips and information that is easy to understand. I think I am going to like this course and get a lot out of it.

Well, He could go a little slower when talking, and go more into conversaition, but love it!!!

Had a lot of good information, it just felt really short and cut off at times. There were several videos that literally cut out in the middle of a sentence. I would be great to see more of this with other meals.
The video format and quizzes were pretty frustrating too. The quizzes are completely useless and should just get cut completely, and the videos would be a lot more watchable if they were just one big video per section (especially since they are clearly all the same video just chopped up for seemingly no reason.
