Are there handouts from this course?
Hi, Laurie. Thanks for getting in touch.
There are several handouts that come with this course! I am a big believer in written, step-by-step instructions, and I consider my handouts to be great reference materials for students who take my classes. The course is recorded, too, and will be hosted on my website for later access!
Be sure to let me know if you have further questions. I look forward to seeing you in class soon.
Regards,
Susan
