*We know you have no idea how to pronounce LLAIC (neither do we!), so let’s go with “lay-ick” or “lay-ack.” Either one will get you in the door!
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.
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.
When I went to the website to find out more about LLAIC and looked at the course offerings, I felt like a kid in a candy store!
