I thought you did an excellent job teaching the class. Jon was great getting the stalker subdued and jumping in when you lost internet service. Everything was very professional and loved how you could use simple items (Crayola marker, ink pen, etc ) to do the exercises. Thank you so much Shelby.
I love how you break everything down and teach bit by bit. Really enjoy any course you teach.
