“Romona has many great qualities, but the one that most resonates with me is the level of engagement she uses in her teaching style. She really makes a habit of remembering the names and the business of her students and makes a point to address them when she makes a point that would be relevant to what they’re trying to accomplish. Social media is challenging becuase it “feels” new. I understand it but struggle with finding the most effective usage. Romona has not only helped me over that hurdle, but has caused me to have a new respect for the things that can be accomplished. She’s friendly, patient and warm, if you haven’t taken a class from her or had her coach you directly, you’ re really missing out.
