    I have had little experience with PowerPoint and this class was an eye-opener! So much to learn. Scott, our teacher was patient and good and clearly knows his material. Will take me a lot of practice to feel comfortable with the many tools and tricks he showed us but it was great getting the thorough overview. Hope to return for Part II. Liz

    I did review this course the day I took it. It was an online review in the classroom. Nonetheless, I thought the teacher was very good, but at one point, seemed to ever-so-slightly lose patience. Not overtly, but it seemed like he was a little irritated.

    I learned so much from this class- like an unbelievable amount. It started very slow and basic, and built from there, so you never felt lost. The teacher, Scott, was very knowledgable and kept things moving along on schedule the whole day. Super pleased with all that I learned and I am already seeing the benefits of my new-found skills at my job.

The teacher, Scott, is described as patient and knowledgeable, leading a thorough overview of the many tools and tricks in PowerPoint. They appreciated the great starting point the class provided. One student mentioned the possibility of returning for Part II. The course was also reviewed online, and while the teacher was generally praised, there was a slight moment of perceived impatience. Overall, students felt they learned an unbelievable amount, starting from slow and basic content and gradually building their skills. They are already applying these newfound skills in their jobs and seeing the benefits. Here are the three most insightful quotes: - "I learned so much from this class- like an unbelievable amount.
