"Appreciate this service and I do think that scientists generally can benefit from learning how to understandably present their data to broad audiences."

"I wish that these lessons became more diffused in order to educate more presenters in other virtual events."

"I found these resources far exceeded my expectations. As an educator myself for many years I had not truly appreciated the power of having an actual person delivering information. I felt Helen had a very powerful way of connecting with the audience which I have not experienced much in the virtual environment particularly in the asynchronous space. I will be using these tips and tricks for my presentations and in my teaching from now on and thank Helen for putting these together in such an engaging way."
