It was GREAT experience and a bit tough. I need to review some videos and do some optional reading, but it gave me a way to think more and try easy ways of learning something new.

Thank you all for this opportunity.

I used the link within the course to write a review. Unfortunate the link took me where I was somehow suddenly not signed in? Maybe fix this problem. I have already written a review of the course elsewhere.

One to return to again and again to remind yourself of techniques. Although you should use the skills everyday from the start. Vital if you want to improve yourself; Pomodoro, Recall, Focus & Diffuse states, on and on..
