Comments
from Students
"Just
wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your talk yesterday. You are a great
lecturer--lively, well-prepared, and oh-so knowledgeable....Thanks for your good
work."--Jodee H.
"Thank
you for another great year of Tarot. They just keep getting better."--Karen
L.
"Thank
you for all of your teachings. I could not have done it without you. I think I
am on the road to something wonderful."--Diane S.
"I
just finished the course given by Carolyn Guss on Tarot Archetypes and the
Fool's Journey. It was great. Carolyn presents so much interesting content that
draws upon a liberal arts education, including history, mythology, psychology,
philosophy, and religion. I certainly recommend having her back to expand on
what she presented. Most of us thought of the Tarot as some kind of
fortune-telling or occult device, but it really is highly symbolic and carries
many life meanings."--Pat H.
"I
just completed the three-week course on Tarot Archetypes and the Fool's Journey.
It was a most fascinating class....I learned so much about art, religion,
psychology, and many various cultures....Carolyn is a true scholar who
passionately involves her students and communicates her topic clearly....The
class was very dynamic and interactive, with students sharing their knowledge in
various fields."--Lisa M.
“You’re an incredible teacher. I
thoroughly enjoyed our work together.”—Lynda Y.
“The last
Tarot meeting was amazing! I was truly inspired by your dedication to the Tarot
and by your high standards. Thanks for inviting us into a deeper knowing of
life.”—Teresa A.
“Thanks for a fun and interesting Tarot
class. I look forward to learning more in the future.”—Stephen F.
“I enjoyed the chemistry within the Tarot
class. But most of all I enjoyed the energy and the loving passion for your work
that you brought to our study.”—Joan N.
“I very much enjoyed your class, learning
about Tarot, humor, and above all, references to history, culture, and
anthropology. Surprisingly, it also improved my looking at museum paintings. I
feel a pleasure scrutinizing them and recognizing some of the Tarot card
symbols.”—Sylvie L.
“Thank you so much for all you have taught
me. I’m looking forward to the new workshops and study groups.”—Susan C.
“Just wanted to thank you for that most
stimulating weekend of Tarot! I learned so much and felt so inspired to keep
studying and reading my cards without looking ‘at the book.’ You are a great
teacher and gracious hostess. I feel very fortunate to have come into your
Tarot Circle of light and inspiration. Thanks again!”—Winnie R.
“I just want to thank you for the Tarot
lesson you gave me a few weeks ago. Before the session I was relying entirely on
commentaries for the symbolism and significance of the cards, but afterward I
find I am finally able to see the
cards. You were really helpful! I think the wonderful room and your use of tiny
figures combined with your clear, spare, scholarly narrative have helped me to
make the connection between visual/symbolic and abstract narrative. I can now
see and connect with the cards in a way that is helping me work through the many
challenges in front of me.”—Kathy F.
“I am writing to tell you how much I have
enjoyed the Tarot course—not only because of the fascinating material but also
because of your talented and lively presentation. I can say without hesitation
that your teaching ability is certainly equal to the very best I have ever
encountered.”—Gardiner M.
“I loved the Main Line School Night Tarot
class. You did a great job!”—Barbara S.
“I have been enjoying my further Tarot
studies and will say, without any hesitation, that you are a truly gifted
teacher.”—Kimberly C.
“You led the class with great
professionalism, variety, and substance. Although I signed up for it on a bit of
a whim, your class turned out to be a valuable life experience, much more than I
expected. For that, I thank you.”—Christine B.
"I wanted to personally thank you again for instructing me in the Art of Tarot. I have learned so much about myself, and it has positively affected my writings, dreams, and interpretations."--Mel B.
"I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed our Tarot classes these past few weeks. You are such a wonderful teacher and have a true gift for being able to impart a wealth of knowledge to others. I am amazed by your ability to condense such a plethora of information into easy-to-read handouts! You make the Tarot so much easier to understand. In class you are just so much fun and your sense of humor adds to the warmth of the atmosphere."--Erika P.
"I enjoyed your class. You are an outstanding teacher!"--Anne W.
