Great instructor
Apr 8, 2011
The instructor is wonderful! New to Wordfast last year, I had an emergency at 3am EST and found Paolo Sebastiani's name and contact information on Proz and contacted him in Europe. He was easy to reach and was able to guide me through all my problems/questions through Skype calls. He was readily available and very helpful - I highly recommend his services! I look forward to this course.

The training guided me to the basic use of Wordfast and one thing that is most appreciable Paolo is available through Skype for any question we may have further ... See more

Thanks again. ▲ Collapse
