What previous participants have to say...
"Camille is a natural teacher. Perfect balance between instruction, hands on learning and dissecting issues as they arise with the group. Before the day I couldn't have guessed where to start - by the end of the day I felt confident that I could take on projects alone, along with overcoming issues as they arise."
— James
"I thoroughly enjoyed the course as I really was a total beginner. I can recommend it highly, Camille was just so patient and knowledgeable."
