The instructor was knowledgeable, thorough, engaging, and warm. A superb mix of “teaching”…AND engaging the class in their interpretation and understanding of the material. Her management of the class on Zoom was also excellent.

LLAIC and LLARC are Collaborating!
LLAIC and the Regis College Lifelong Learning program, Lifelong Learning at Regis College (LLARC), have joined together to offer their members over 50 exciting fall courses. Both have in-person and Zoom offerings. LLARC members are also invited to join LLAIC at LUNCH@LLAIC and our Wintersession and Summersession programs.
The advantages of two lifelong learning groups working together, sharing courses and space, opens up so many more opportunities for all the members. Members of both groups can not only find fascinating courses, but also interest groups, special programs, lunchtime speakers, etc. Visit the LLARC website and join the collaboration!
Everyone went out of their way to be warm, gracious and welcoming to me as a new member. I look forward to participating more actively as time goes on.
