Great inspiration and explained thoroughly. It may be the teachers normal personality or way she expresses herself but she was flat and left me with the idea she was unwell or tired. She lacked enthusiasm. I hate to say that. Her material is good but the delivery was disappointing. She was thorough and stayed at a good pace.
