    Anne, and her class were inspirational and very helpful! In addition to Anne's sage advice and guidance, there was opportunity for the other people in class to share their blogging experiences and advice as well. All in all a great and encouraging way to spend a Tuesday evening!

    I thought Anne was great, very welcoming, warm and friendly. I enjoyed the overall "community" feel to the class and felt very encouraged to make connections and support one another.

    This was a great class. Anne is knowledgeable and approachable and as a first-time blogger, I learned a lot that will help me get started.

    I was very happy with this class- especially as a beginner. It was perfect for people who are interested in blogging, but really have no clue what their blog should be about, where to start, and how to do it. It offered good basic skills and knowledge, but also pushed students to discover what they would want out of a blog and how to make it purposeful instead of a meaningless hobby.

    Anne has such a vision and clear voice when it comes to blogging, and this emulated through her teaching. I loved the laid back "come as you are" whether you are a blogger or not, to learn more and focus on how blogging can create community. Great class and can't wait for more to come from Anne.

    Anne was very professional and organized and she had a lot to offer in information and what it takes to be a blogger at the heart level. I had given up on blogging and only took the class to glean information to help some friends push their blog to the next level. But by the end of the class, I felt encouraged to pursue my own blog again. All in all, the class was worth the money and time.

    The teacher was full of energy and inspiration. I would definitely recommend this class to people who are interested in starting a blog, but don't know where to start.
