Das sagen Teilnehmende über den Kurs: 
  • Many methods can be learned in such a short time. The trainer created a group spirit even via zoom - this has been a great experience.
  • Luisa tried to create some group spirit via zoom and it really worked - was a great experience as for the most online courses this did not happen.
