One of the best courses I have been on. Not only have I advanced my knowledge, but I felt there was such a sense of identity within the group so that we all got the most individually. I found the whole course so interesting, and you can tell Hugo, Sue and Michele genuinely do care - not just about what they do, but about the people they are teaching as well. It was worth every penny
