What our participants say
.avif)
It was really realistic, at eye level, explained simply and practically, we were allowed to try and do everything and also use new materials every time and thus practice (fully equipped) in these special scenarios.
... not just PowerPoint, puppet and theory as usual.
It is really recommended for everyone!
