When deciding on the next course to take I try to choose his classes first because I have confidence that I will be able to learn a difficult course with him. Before taking the first two Excel courses, I had never worked with this program, and now I am able to do things I didn't even know existed - plus I actually understand why and how to do it. Thank you."
