I feel like it was a good balance of academic but not too academic

Just an observation - many of the final assignments had mixed up names of characters, giving, for example, an anecdote about 'John' and then asking how one would reply to 'Tony'. It just felt a little less professional....

Course content good, but quite awkward accessing via lengthy PDF documents. Provision of on-line course material with more interactivity would have been preferable.

Very easy to follow-only criticism is that proof reading is needed & a lot of web addresses are no longer available, so updating required.

I think I said this last time - the course text was basically good but, in my opinion, needs re-editing to improve consistency and remove repetitions and Increase clarity.

I found the pdf files difficult to follow and therefore ordered the paper files. I think the course would benefit from the materials being more interactive. For example, you watch a mentoring/coaching interaction video rather than read a transcript. This also helps to consider non-verbal communication and use of self commonly discussed in the modules.

i live and work in an area where it is quite difficult to access to public libraries and good resources including books therefore i believe more of material including notes should be offered

I thought it was a great cross section. I think in this day and age there was too much on Christian focused pastoral care. I believe that pastoral care is important but it needs to show more diversity.

The course content and materials are helpful. Some links are unable to access.

generally good but was wondering if it can be compacted a bit .
