very clear, very good explanation, wishing more teachers would train like this
Mihaela - Phillip Morris
Course - Excel Basics
Explanations "in everyone's language"; the fact that every time our questions were answered and it was explained to us in at least 2 ways what, how and from where; the relaxed atmosphere and the fact that although there was a lot about mathematics, I didn't feel that; the trainer's experience proven through reasoned explanations, but never demonstrative; the trainer's passion: it is clear that he likes what he does :)

Most of all I appreciated the trainer's way of interacting with all the trainees, the willingness to provide any information requested and the interest given to each topic so that it is well understood. The course was very interactive, with lots of information and examples, and also the exercises were very useful for checking and consolidating knowledge.
