Ranji Smile: America's First Celebrity Chef
I wasn't thrilled with the class and that could be for several reasons that the instructor may not have control over. The slides were hard to read/decipher. Often times I couldn't tell where I should direct my focus - listen to the instructor or figure out what was on the screen. The instructor was knowledgable and engaging - however, I wish there was more of a beginning, middle and end to the class. At the end I felt like a conversation was left unfinished. I would urge the instructor to have a more solid idea of the story she wants to tell. Because we are not together in person - it is hard to feed off of the reactions of fellow students. The onus falls on the instructor to make things more engaging. All of the above is meant to be helpful and written with respect. -
Build Your Journaling Practice
I absolutely loved this class! Kelly Laughlin is an incredible instructor who is clearly passionate about journaling. During this pandemic it gave me such joy to meet and interact with Kelly and all of the other participants. Thank you Kelly for inspiring me to journal once again. -

Project Management 101
The class with Eve was very good. Was well paces (although a bit fast) because there was so much information to put out there. It was told in a way for anyone just learning could understand. I enjoy the small size of it and breaking up into smaller zoom rooms. This was new for me. You might want to make it 3.5 hrs. But i would think about taking the full day course one day. Thanks!!

Great course! It was conducted remotely due to COVID-19, so things ran a little slower. However, very beneficial and I would certainly take another course on the subject matter and with Eve. -

Launch Your Podcast
Peach and Prosperity's daughter and dad team, Julia and Jeff, were really helpful when answering questions about how to start, launch, and promote a podcast. This class was interactive and allowed for participation. One thing I found really helpful, was that the instructors did a great job of providing a variety of resources - from free, easy to use resources to more advanced, paid options. It was really helpful to hear Julia and Jeff share how to get started without tons of equipment or a large investment, which made launching a podcast sound much more accessible. They also followed up with additional resources after the class and provide the slides in case anyone is interested in going back through the material. I'd definitely recommend this class to anyone looking to launch a podcast or learn more about podcasting.
