Amazing Value
I can't say enough good things about this class and the instructors. The format and pacing is perfect, and the feedback you get from the classmates as well as instructors is extremely valuable. Speaking of value, the value of this class far surpasses the small fee and should not deter anyone who is on the fence. Nick and co have built something beautiful here and I can't wait to start on section 2!
