Good afternoon Ashton,

Thanks for the informative sessions on the Tax for Beginners Self-Study Package. It’s a great course that clearly explains how to perform the calculations. Some points are repeated throughout the sessions, but that actually helps reinforce the concepts and makes the content feel more complete especially when the speaker covers topics like Capital Gains Tax (CGT).

Thanks once again I enjoyed the course and would recommend it to anyone that has no tax experience or even wants to do their own tax.

Kind Regards

I saw your course offered through Udemy, but I told myself, support local business direct, regardless of massive discount offered.

Thanks for your tireless attention to customer service.
