Especially the wording, I think calling it their voice instead of quote or testimony shows how they are at the center of Access It starts with the basics making it not feel overwhelming, it should be obvious but it isnt always, nothing seems too little Everything at the end is amazing, each section has its purpose and I think students will find it so useful, especially being able to write notes. Overall I loved it!
