I would recommend this course to anyone interested in gaining experience in teaching.

This course exposed me to various perspectives of how different people teach and how it can be done effectively.

Many thanks to Michelle Benson. Michelle is such a knowledgeable mentor. It was wonderful to work with her as well as the rest of the classroom.

This was honestly such an insightful and memorable experience.

I have just finished 10 hour practical course with Michelle Benson. She has a whale of experience and happy to pass the knowledge to novices like ourselves in a very friendly, non-judgemental manner, supporting and encouraging even the shyest students. She was an inspiration to all of us, Besides her lovely personality, the course structure was clear and sequential. Although the material was simple but the practice part of it showed that nothing is easy until you start using it. Keep on practicing, people! Also, I would like to say “thank you” for encouraging us to take it seriously and responsibly, as well as providing info on next steps to start applying our knowledge.

I recently took the 10-hour virtual online course with Michelle Benson. This course was the last course I was scheduled to take after completing my 180-hour Advanced Teaching course. This virtual class was so helpful in cementing the theory I obtained previously. First, Michelle Benson is such a great teacher. She made me feel at ease from the beginning and her teaching style is very clear and engaging. Just experiencing her enthusiasm gave me confidence that I too can be myself when spreading knowledge with the techniques that she provided.

My goal is to teach online and participating in this class provided the experience that I will be using. I am excited to move forward in my journey of teaching and feel prepared to take the next steps that she outlined and provided in the resources presented.

My experience with the 10h course with Michele Benson went great : she is a great instructor and was really clear and helpful in the way she delivered all those informations. Being able to create and deliver a lesson to a class was a concern for me and a course of worry and her course allowed me to feel more at ease and confident about it. I am really grateful for this course and for Michele as well. I recommend !
