TESTIMONIALS

Signing up for Zoom Independent study is a gift I give myself as often as possible. It is a chance to see old friends (met in earlier zoom classes) and meet new ones. I know I will find new sources of inspiration from others’ projects as well as getting helpful feedback about my own. Whether I have a deadline for my own work or just enjoy more slowly working alongside others, I always learn something new. I am planning to do another independent study in November. I very much enjoyed this one and having the zoom option makes it possible.  I think the format works amazingly well for your purposes and does create community, as unusual as that seems to be. As always I love learning from you and from what others are learning.”  - D., South Carolina

“Thank you so much for a fantastic class experience! This is my first experience in an Independent Study with Hollis, and I felt very welcomed to the group. I so appreciate all the interactions over the last days, and I feel a great deal of healing in my heart. This has been a rough time the last few months balancing my health with all the COVID-19 “demands”, and the overwhelm of media, fear-mongering, on and on...having the grounding of “Hollis-ness” has been precious, and truly an oasis.” - R., Colorado

“It has been a really good experience with this Independent Study. I think this was the best experience I have had for in person class and remotely. Thinking I needed the in person experiences before this experience to lead up to this, but, I actually felt I learned more, listened more to Hollis’ comments to me, and, was able to be a “fly on the wall” listening to her helpfulness to others. I just loved this experience!”  - D., Delaware
