Fred Lindgren – Essentials of Character Development
Gloria is an accomplished teacher with a well-organized curriculum. On top of that, she is a gentle and thoughtful giver of feedback. She is supportive and encouraging to all, and matches her level of critique to the level of the participant. I felt we were in the hands of a master and mentor, and it was a privilege to have her undivided attention eight times in two months.

The course material was excellent. It kept me engaged and learning throughout. This class was so helpful because it focused not just on individual poems but on seeing work (your own and others’) in terms of a collection. The class work and generous attention of the teacher were invaluable. I wish there were more classes like this!

This is the second time I have taken this course and I will enroll again if offered by Lissa Jensen. Her method of presenting information, inspiration and freedom of exploration is perfect for me. The exceptional detailed critiques have provided the encouragement and understanding needed to continue. Lissa demonstrates on a how-to video to further explain the assignment. She is caring and takes extra time if needed. Great class!

The course was great for a beginner but also for those who were further ahead in the process. Jack was readily available for questions and helping students along. He spent time on my work, provided helpful feedback and readily answered questions. He made helpful recommendations that I think will strengthen my work. I am so much further in the process than I would have been if I had not taken the class.
