Reviews from the Live Session
“Really appreciated the ‘fish & net’ explanation. I’m dyscalculic, so usually, stats mean nothing to me as people just use numbers to ‘explain.’ I truly appreciated this session – you have an absolute gift for explaining things. Thank you.”

“Good use of exam-type questions to provide examples and trigger discussions. The teaching was well-structured and easy to follow, even considering the difficult nature of statistics.”
