Wonderful teaching skills that can help anyone 'get it' - no matter your learning ability! Answers all questions and gives great examples!He's a keeper Barber 😁💥💪🏽Cocina De TanSoLovelyCocina De TanSoLovely β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† The instructor Taresa Johnson covered the required material, but my experience with their communication style was not very positive.At times, the instructor came across as dismissive and somewhat condescending when questions were asked or when clarification was needed. For example, when I experienced a technical issue and was removed from the session, the response I received felt more critical than supportive. In a setting where participants are trying to complete required coursework and learn from the experience, a more patient and understanding approach would be helpful.While the information presented is important, I believe the overall experience would improve with a more respectful and supportive communication style.Luis MedranoLuis Medrano β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Mark (my instructor) did an amazing job and made the class a very enjoyable experience.
