The subjects covered were very interesting and helpful to my day-to-day life. The writing style was clear. I really enjoyed this course. I am pursuing other communication courses!!!

Thank you so much for the opportunity in utilizing this course! I can already see the difference in my ability to communicate well to others and understand and know when and when not to speak or simply wait my turn. This course was wonderful.

Working through this course has helped me recognize many aspects of communication. I found it very informative and have already applied some of the techniques to my daily communications. I especially benefited from the lessons on effective listening and conflict resolution, however, each lesson was of value to me. I truly enjoyed your course.

This course surprised me in that it was very good indeed and not at all what I expected. There are so many courses from which to choose so this choice was really a shot in the dark. I appreciated the history and background and I could see the instructor at the front of the room with a PowerPoint presentation sharing the information. I deal in the clinical area of research and have a clinical background of more than 30 years. I need to deal with scientists who know the science, but cannot apply it to patients. Communication with them is difficult to say the least. I must say that the listening chapter was the most valuable. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to share what I have learned with them at least by example.

I found this course to be extremely helpful have already experienced significant changes in my relationships with people. I would definitely recommend this course to everyone!

I thought that this course was organized and presented in a very efficient manner. I thought the writing style of the lessons were great. I loved the conversational style that they were presented in. It felt like the instructor was actually speaking to us and not reading out of a text book.

Found the course to be interesting and as an individual in law enforcement, it has helped me communicate much better with people from a diverse background.

This was my first online class, so I was hesitant when I registered. It was most beneficial and I have no regrets. I strongly recommend it. The instructor is absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much.

Thank you Dr. Laurel for a great course! You have a very interactive and conversational style of writing which prevents the course reading from being boring. Your examples and analogies were easy to grasp and helped with understanding each lesson. I learned a lot in every lesson and have been able to apply what you've taught us to both my personal and professional relationships. This course superseded my expectations and I'm so happy I chose to take it, especially with you as the instructor!

Thank you so much. Because I took this course, I was able to initiate and partake in a conflict mediation resolution to resolve a situation at work. [...] I am fortunate to belong to an organization that promotes interpersonal relations. It was an emotional experience, but I was able to address my concerns and I feel validated as they were legitimate. It was an incredible experience and I achieved success due to taking this course and the Get Assertive course. Thanks again for helping me resolve conflict.
