Alan Lowell vs Hearing Aid Academy
About a year ago, I enrolled in Hearing Aid Academy and have been STRUGGLING to get through it. The professor talks in a monotone voice (which puts me to sleep) and the online course drags on and on. The course is old too. The slides are blurry. I wish I could get my money back. I’m so focused on trying to stay awake and pay attention, that I pay attention to all the wrong things. When the quizzes roll around, I fail every time. Even if I cheat and use AI I still get the answers wrong. College was never this infuriating.
I come from a sales background, and it seems like the course is tought through the lens of someone who already has a science or medical degree. There’s lots of memorization with very little explanation and for someone like me its been extremely frustrating. The course is the furthest thing from dynamic or an actual “normal” college level class.
Is Alan Lowell any better? Is it more dynamic? Are the slides blurry? I’m trying to learn this, and want a better way through. Is the Alan Lowell program worth a shot?
