What Our Students Say

Martha Kong—SSBV 2023

“It’s been incredible. I felt like I was doing the same thing over and over again, telling the same story. And doing this course has helped me to think outside the box—tell stories in a unique way. You really did not leave any stone unturned. There was just so much information. If we had questions, you guys were happy to answer them. I loved that. We had that group chat and we could flick you a message and everybody was able to help out and I had a real sense of community. I loved every part of the course.”
