Noah’s Review of Felipe’s Registered Scrum Master Course

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"My trainer kept the class lively with jokes and made the class simultaneously enjoyable and insightful. I had the most fun learning in a long time due to Felipe's teaching style. He answered all of my questions and encouraged me to stop him at any point if I didn't understand something. Thank you, Felipe, for an amazing experience."
