I took the 10 week course with Tim Hardy and he made the material easy to understand, takes the time to give real life examples and goes above and betond to help his students as much as he can with extra materials and awesome outlines for notes. The class was very much enjoyable as well.

I took the course here a few months ago. The instructor, Wendy, was amazing. As I took the intense 4-week course and had 2 small kids at home, I didn’t have much time for self-study. I passed the test easily, thanks to Wendy, who explained everything and provided real-life examples that were easy to remember and apply to different scenarios.
