Very kind and wise and humble words combined with a warm and tender voice ! The content could include more details. I also enjoyed Professor Bloom's avatar and his changing cloths and other cartoons.

Great course. Although please be aware that the "10 minute" read at the end of each section takes a lot longer than that.
