Excellent course! Information was laid out and explained well in an easy-to-understand way. I thought Bernard Tonks clarified an area of learning I found challenging to understand.

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo

Excellent course. It provided a lot of information on what could potentially be a very complex and confusing topic. The instructor explained the topic exceptionally well.

Introduction to Vestibular Rehabilitation

The case studies were a fantastic opportunity to test and consolidate my learning. Bernard goes through each case study and discusses the most important info from it, highlights the meaning behind each sign or symptom and clarifies their relevance of them in the context.
