The way of conducting classes
Szymon Wolny
interesting issues, nice facilitator, professional way of conducting classes
Małgorzata Konior
The most striking thing for me was the trainer's use of talking to the group in the way "Look", "Look", "Now use this command" - this is a fairly well-known and effective method of maintaining focus among listeners. In addition, extensive knowledge of the teacher. which he can convey in an accessible way.
