    Great teacher and included fun methods. Very informative but a little disorganized at times. A bit more structure to the course will make it that much more enjoyable.

    The teacher was knowledgeable but sometimes a little confusing to understand. Sometimes a little unorganized, some of the different oils weren’t mark so I didn’t know what oils I was using
