I learned some useful skills, like how to analyze movies and use them to help clients. The instructor was okay, and the course materials were decent. One thing that was really helpful was the discussion forum, where we got to share our thoughts and ideas with each other. It was a good way to learn from others and get feedback on my own work.

I recently completed the Cinema Therapy Foundations course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a thoroughly detailed and comprehensive learning experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, from the theoretical underpinnings of cinema therapy to its practical applications in various settings. I appreciated the instructor's expertise and the quality of the course materials, which included a wealth of resources and references. One of the highlights of the course was the opportunity to analyze and discuss various films in depth, which helped me develop a deeper understanding of the therapeutic potential of cinema. While some of the course content was quite dense, I found the overall learning experience to be satisfying and rewarding. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of cinema therapy and its applications.
