Christ is an excellent educator and I learned a lot and I loved how you engaged everyone in the class. I teared 😢 in the first video and it is extremely necessary at the beginning of class because it gives everyone a sense of how important the class material is. Truly one of the best class I have taken and with great professional learning skills and wealth of knowledgeable material. Thank you.

I know I can pass it but problem with hearing language sentences words like trick me. I have been working group home with deaf program in Minnesota over 15 years. I like to watch sign language interpreters than closed caption too fast for me to read and lost some track your conversation with others. I do read with manual book. Denise
