Comments from students.



Mr. Mokili Ole Sokoi: The course was great! Short and clear.

Mr. Joel Joseph Negga: It was a good idea to prepare Certificates. We will need them, soon!

Miss Prisca: Most of the contents we do them with teacher Victor. But it was good to hear it from different people.

Mr. Lodrick Swai: The best part? I think there was more practice than theory.

Miss Fortunata: It was good. You know Wazungu are very fast and precise!


Miss Anna: The course was short but anyway, it was good. A bit difficult to follow up but the practice helped a great deal. Thanks for the Certificates!

Mr. Ezekiel: I think we should do it more often. The practice was very good.

Mr. Harold: I grasp as much as I could. Not everything. It was good.

Mr. Robert: I was luck to be around, benefit with it and the Certificate. Very rare!

Mr. Ashery: Hopefully we all understand how important this short court course was. I don't think it will happen again. If it come back again, I will come even after graduation.
