"I enjoyed the flexibility to address the course when able to concentrate and spend time needed to complete certain sections. I appreciate the opportunities to self-test with the online exercises - crosswords, championship jeopardy-style drills and prelim quizzes."

"I liked how I could manage my time to study, without the pressure of finishing one module at a specific time. The facilitator was helpful, even when the course was difficult for me and I sent her a lot of questions, she still managed to reply with explanations, breaking things down step-by-step. The chat with the student support was a big help!! They're always polite and professional!!!"

"I was able to work around my schedule, at my convenience. I didn't have to go anywhere for class - if I wanted to study in my jammies, I did! The rare occasion that I needed assistance with anything, it was readily available. It was a great experience that I would recommend for any "Non-traditional" student as myself and I would happily take further classes from ed2go."
