Lisa – MANSFIELD ISD (verified owner) –
I know that some love online trainings but I prefer in person courses. As much as we are virtual all the time, my old eyes cannot take computer learning like they could when I was a kid. I have gone to my eye doctor 3 times and have only been back at work since July 23rd (it is just August 9th). So this training is okay if we must do it online but I do prefer in person.
