My latest course would not have been possible without Sarah Deery. She doesn't just help you create a better course. She also "tests" your content, guides you to "simplify" complexity, and in the long run helps you become a better "facilitator".I see this effect in everything I do now - writing, workshops, office work.Thankful to MoT and Sarah for this lovely collaboration.
