Student Reviews:
"I enjoyed this course very much, and I love the instructor's "friendly" style and enthusiasm. I learned a lot of little things that will enhance my use of Word."
"I loved the pace of this class. It started out with the basics, and then moved onto more difficult projects. The projects all used techniques from the previous chapters. I was able to retain information and practices skills throughout the course. This course was so helpful to me."
"I really enjoyed this course! I signed up for it in order to learn how to design tickets for the choir that I'm in, and discovered how to do so much more. I found it very empowering, since I've been intimidated by computers in the past. Thanks so much!"
"I was impressed with the organization and ease of use of this online program. This was my first experience and it was very positive."
"The lessons were very informative and I surprised myself with what I was able to create. I look forward to another course very soon."
"This is my fourth on-line classroom and I have received the best hands-on instructions within these six-week courses. I am able to apply much of what I've learned to my computer skills on the job. I now have co-workers asking for help and calling me "expert"."
"This was convenient, easy to understand and very informative. Thank you!"
"This was so convenient and taught me so many creative things. It was just what I've been looking for to increase my skills. The lessions were just the right length to hold my interest."
"This was the best class I have ever taken. The instructor explained everything so clearly that I felt that he was in the room with me. I have never taken a online class before and thought that It would be very hard for me to understand. I am sixty years old, and I understood more with this instructor than I have with other Instructors that was in a classroom teaching. The materials were clear and fun and easy. In the future I intend to take as many online classes that I can. I learned a lot."
"Very easy to follow, detailed format and instructions! I felt this course covered a broad range of useful tools in Word, however, it didn't overwhelm me with too much detail. This was very beneficial to me and enhanced my knowledge and skills in Word."
