I found it helpful the way she laid out the terms, pictures, and videos. However, it was a lot of detailed information with lots of words, and it might have been more helpful to have more examples whether through case studies, intervention ideas, etc.

The class would have been so much better.My one critique, which was very distracting, the teacher had a bad habit of using “um” when she paused after a statement. I couldn’t listen anymore. I think she used that term 900 times.I was counting but I stopped. She is highly intelligent but her speaking was a huge distraction.

The presenter gave an excellent explanation for a "reverse swallow" and why it occurs - something many presenters refer to, but rarely explain. This course provided so much information for reference. Having the slides pdf and the transcript will be so helpful to use in all aspects of feeding therapy - understanding referrals, documenting, evaluation, and interventions. While she was obviously very knowledgeable, I was distracted by her mispronunciation of pharynx and larynx throughout.

I found the presentation very dry. It was overly informative with the amount of information on the slide. The speaker, while knowledgeable, didn't speak clearly. I needed to download the transcript to figure out what she was explaining.

This course was very rich in anatomy and physiology. I love how she reminded us that we need to go back to the cranial nerves and facial muscles to help with assessment of problems. My only suggestion would be to have even more case-studies to help us connect the dots.

The instructor covered a lot of ground in a very short period of time. It peaked my curiosity in a number of other areas. The only major thing I wish was covered that wasn't was how to determine whether it is approriate to recommend a swallow study and how that impacts the timing and type of therapeutic interventions offered.

Wow! That was a lot of information and terminology packed into a one hour course! I would love to see this extended into a longer course to soak in more of the details. As for the objectives, I do feel the information provided helped achieve these goals, but would've like to have seen more application in terms of case studies.

Wasn’t so basic as some courses. I felt I gained relevant insight even as a practitioner for 9 years. I am currently school based and beginning to take on more early intervention kiddos outside of school. This was a great starting point as feeding is highly prevalent among my referrals

Overall, I felt this course was a bit too technical and not the best for a "beginner" course on feeding. Yes it did explain anatomy and physiology of feeding structures, but I felt it did not really help emphasize the importance of feeding therapy in a more practical manner with specific application to patients. I think a less detailed description of anatomy and more information about specific application to case studies would have been more helpful.
