Just a quick note to tell you how much I enjoyed having Debbie Long as the CE instructor yesterday. She was smart, articulate, professional,well-prepared, and entertaining. For the first time in the 7-8 years I've been taking CE, I did not spend most of my time either bored or looking at the clock to see when the course would end!  

-- Mike Field, Southern Pines

"I just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed being in your class last Friday.  I always try to take you classes because they are well organized.  Your intelligent yet easy approach is most welcome!  It so refreshing to be in class with you, your presence and teaching skills make us all better.  Thank you!"--  Sharon Perry

"I wanted to take a moment and let you know how much I enjoyed the update course today. Realizing these update courses can put you to sleep really fast, your visuals and the fact that you encourage participation and role playing make your classes not only enjoyable but helps me remember what I actually went to class to learn. I appreciate that aspect of your teaching and I know others do also."           --Vicky Freeland, HPW
