Sophie has a vast knowledge of the subject and her passion to share these knowledge is admirable.

I appreciate that we have some additional sources of tricks and tips. In addition, the PPT presentations are clear and precise on the topic. In plus, loved the fact that I could scroll back to hear again what was said to grasp better the new material and to see where my error was while trying exercises on my own.
