|| NOTABLE REVIEWS ||

“I have found this course to be clear, executed at a good pace, and very well explained. The content is systematic and logical. The music professor guy (Ben?) is great. I am registered to do the follow-on course. Other than small technical hitch, which was sorted quickly, the technology, presentation and user interface have also been a pleasure to use.”

    -Peter Smith

    -Gwen Clark
