"The course was practical and it widened my perspective on house cleaning. Researching the history of house cleaning and interesting facts about toilets interweaved with practical house keeping knowledge made the subject matter enjoyable to learn and memorable. I loved the chemistry lesson on cleaners. It was easy to understand and provided a good foundation for learning about cleaners. Rather than memorizing a list of chemicals and what they are used for I learned the logic behind making my own cleaning solution. I feel confident that I know how to clean my house now without asking my best friend what cleaner she uses. Excellent instructor. The course was a delight to take and I learned a lot." -- Linda K.
