§ …chronisch ziek, deels aan huis gebonden, beperkt studie budget. Maar dan wil ik ook vermelden: enthousiast, zeer gemotiveerd, gepassioneerd over het onderwerp, mijn wereldje wordt weer wat groter…
¢ Apologies for adding to your avalanche of emails, but I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the MOOC. … I worked in radio journalism for nine years with the BBC …
¢ Now, since I'm very interested in the content itself, I'd be happy to enroll in the follow up course! Is it going to happen any time soon (provided I pass the exam, of course)? Congrats again for work well done!
