“[The KTS Teachers] were fantastic in leading the Online Version of Experiencing Speech. Both were brilliant in understanding our needs, as well as filling in any “gaps” we might have felt we would have missed from an in-person version. [They] covered all the bases of what we would have and could have wanted from an in-person workshop. As a bonus, by watching how they managed challenges, I learned how to effectively and easily teach online! Having all of our sessions recorded and accessible forever is an incredible gift, and I know I will be returning to it often to re-learn and make sure the nutrients of the sessions really sink in. I will be recommending KTS online or otherwise to anyone who might be interested in something like this. “
