Modesty almost forbids me publishing some comments about my teaching style, taken from reviews of some ofmy other courses, but I overcame that, so here they are:-Bernie is really easy to listen to, and his videos were really entertaining and kept you listening. (I also like his accent!)Many online courses suffer from over prepared, monotonic boring voice overs but Bernie’s style is a bit like having your mate round to show you how to do something. This even goes to leaving some bloopers in which makes it human and fun. Bernie is a hoot! He knows his material, presents it well, and is witty to boot. It’s a great combination in a teacher.I love Bernie’s approach. Such a great instructor, Bernie is an excellent teacher and his enthusiasm for photography is contagious. Bernie is a fantastic tutor, Love it, love it, love it!
