You are most likely a blend of learning types. Each topic is covered in a way that ensures that every learner gets the maximum out of the session.
This course is not a spectator sport; you won’t watch hours of video and hope it sinks in. Also, it will take you longer than you might expect if you do it right. We'll start with a new, blank workbook and gradually build it up until it is ready to run a basic budget for buying gifts. Here's how we'll work together:
- You'll read the lesson notes; step by step instructions supported by screen shots
- Watch and listen to the 'how to' video - I tend to talk on these videos as if I'm sitting right next to you
- You'll do an exercise at the end of every section to get your own workbook to the same point as I got to in the lesson. Either do these exercises by following the instructions on-screen or by using the downloadable exercise book
- Finally, you'll make make your own notes, a kind of quick reference guide to refer back to using the 'Personal Quick Reference Guide’
If you have a question about a topic just ask in the lesson or in the supporting Facebook Group and I'll answer.
