Customer Testimonials
What people say?
Dr. Rich was THE BEST facilitator so far in this entire program. His feedback was personal (not cookie cutter), it was timely and he pushed for improvement week-to-week. He was also more engaged in the class than any other professor to date. He was awesome…
Dr. Schuttler provided quality feedback in a timely manner that directs me to produce more scholarly work. His experience and ability allowed me to understand and fulfill expectations. The best instructor thus far.
Dr. Schuttler was great! The questions and classroom conversations were varied, intelligent, and allowed us to think from our own perspectives and life experience which rarely–if ever–has happened.
