"I didn't know where to start with so many apps out there, but this course was clear, easy to follow, and it was great having the video demonstrations to watch and the ability to stop and go back over them numerous times. I feel comfortable with assistive tech now. The course was so much more than I expected. I can't praise it enough!"
