Best Course for Sure

This for me has been the best course thus far on Scoolinary and should be the best practice format for all the courses. Content was presented at the right level of detail & pace. RIght balance of music without being too repetitive or loud. Native English was a bonus. A focus on ingredients & concepts allows people to take on a tasting menu at their own skill level with purpose. Excellent course!
