Product reviews for Creative Writing Workshop

I want to thank you so much. This class has been wonderful for me. As a writer, I know I have a long way to go, but I am willing to do what it takes to get there, and this class has served as wonderful beginning for me. I thank you and hope all aspiring writers take this course. It is a godsend.

This course has been a revelation. I've attended many writers workshops over the past quarter century, and none of them equaled your course. I thought I had a solid grasp on writing techniques and the basics, but you presented solid, step-by-step information that was not only helpful but stimulating and exciting. Concurrently, your comments and encouragement were right on target, as was the support of the classmates. Well done and thorough, and the exercises were superb. Thank you very much.

I didn't have a story that needed to be told. I didn't consider myself a closet writer. I didn't have a book of ideas. I took this course because I wanted to expand my horizons and have fun. This course surpassed all my expectations. I gained insight into and increased the trust in my creative ability. I have become more observant of the world and people that surround me. I've used the skills I learned in this course to become more aware of who I am and what I want in life.

I have never before taken a writing course and I wouldn't have believed that an online course would be so interactive. It was a great experience. I learned so much more than I thought I would. I took the course on a whim and it turned out to be the most fun I have had in a long time. It actually has got me writing rather than just thinking about writing.

I have taken several courses on writing, and this one is by far one of the best. So many courses don't tell you "how" to go about tackling the writing process, and this class showed me exactly how to do that. I learned a lot, and I would enjoy more classes like this one. Thank you!

I was very hesitant about taking an online course, unsure of what to expect. However, I found this course and our instructor, Ann, to be wonderful. I learned so much, and never felt neglected or unimportant. Thank you to Ann for a great course and help, and thank you for offering this course.

I went to the international writers conference in Canada and found that much of the material in the workshops was review after doing this course. I am very pleased with how much material was covered in such a short time. The instructor was very informative and professional.

This class was the perfect introduction to creative writing. The anonymity of the online environment is a wonderful way for students to take those first tentative steps in sharing creative pieces without feeling vulnerable or too exposed. I learned to take some risks with my writing, received encouragement along with constructive criticism that made my creative pieces better, and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. It has made me want to take more online classes. Many thanks Ann. I may actually realize my dreams because of this class.

The Beginning Writer course was excellent. I enjoyed this course more than any other credit or non-credit course I have ever taken. The instructor was knowledgeable and encouraging. The feedback received on the assignments was very helpful. I've never said this about a course before, but I am actually sorry to see this class end! Taking this course has encouraged me to take more writing classes. My heartfelt thanks to the instructor for an terrific course.

I have taken numerous courses, both in class and online and no one has been able to do what Ann has done for me. Ann brilliantly guided her class from making tiny, fearful baby steps with new words, to reaching out to others in our writing, expanding our self-confidence, and mostly engaging us in the art of writing. She not only taught us the hows, she also taught us the whys. She correspondingly showed us our inner critics and ways to deal with them. She addressed everything that a beginning writer feels and needs. She also did something for me which she is unaware of. My son read some of my assignments and listened to me talk about the lessons. He became excited and signed up for her course. I want to thank Ann for making this course the wonderful experience I never expected.

Product reviews for Microsoft Excel 2007 Intermediate

Instructor is very knowledgeable and makes learning fun, too.

Verified Student

I really enjoyed this class and having used Excel 2003 at work and home, it was nice to be taught the newly added features with Excel 2007. I really think that the ribbon format is a very nice feature and that the options and tools to use in Excel 2007 are easy to find. I look forward to using what I learned at work and home. I would have liked to learn a little more with macros and functions but hope that the advanced Excel course will touch a little more on these concepts. The discussion areas were a nice feature to have if I encountered any problems with assignments since maybe other students were having the same issues. Overall, I really enjoyed the class and look forward to taking the advanced Excel course to learn even more. Thank you.

I enjoyed this course, and the instructor, so much that I plan to take the Advanced Excel course!

I have been an Excel user for many years and wanted more exposure to Excel 2007. This was a great help. The course guided me through the new user interface expertly.

I thought this was a great paced course as I work full time and was still able to spend the time needed to complete this course and the assignments. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful and provided supplemental information which will be useful to refer back to later on.

Great course. Very relevant topics and well presented for an online course. Thanks!

I have thoroughly enjoyed the class. I took this class for my personal improvement. The class itself, has exceeded my expectations. The instructor was very responsive with class participation and the materials are easy to read (not as stuffy as the normal text book.) I am glad that I signed up for this class. Enjoyed it thoroughly!!!!

The convenience of the online course allowed me to continue sessions while on travel.

The course was excellent - Chad's writing style was very engaging. I am an experienced excel user and wasn't sure if this was the right level for me. I took it because I wanted the experience of an on-line course. The experience was great. I was looking for more depth in the macro and functions area. The charting section helped me to visual better which charts are best for the purpose. Loved the ability to group items in the pivot table and then collapse the view this has been very valuable already.

Awesome Instructor, very helpful and very knowledgeable!
