I was under the impression that this course was targeted at a Preschool demographic. I am disappointed that so many of the pictures and references show an older age group. Desks? in a childcare? This does not seem to fit my expectation of the course.

The best aspect of this training for me was the flexibility. This training was the perfect fit for me due to that reason.

Just the fact that I was able to do it all online, on my own time, at my own pace. I loved that I could stop and come back to a course later. I also loved that I was able to complete in my own time frame. I only took 2 months, which worked out great for me and what I wanted to achieve!

I started May 23 th with my first class! Today I finished my 11th assessment! June 1th!
I love the structure from the classes, and I can't wait to do the next tomorrow! I learned already a lot!
I only struggle a little bit with some new words, because my mother language is Swiss German.
I feel very happy and satisfied after every assessment

I really liked the voice that reads out loud as well as having the reading material so I could read along. I liked the crossword game, it was fun and easy. Live chat has been extremely fast at responding to any questions that I've had. Having someone to get help from is comforting.
