REVIEWS LIKE THIS - "I liked how the course offered a variety of material, not only in terms of anatomy. I expected a lot of this course to be about the bones, muscles, organs, etc., but it was much more than that! It incorporated many social and emotional aspects, that are so important to consider as teachers."
