The class attendees really appreciated your willingness to veer from the agenda. You covered and addressed exactly what they were hoping to get in the training! They enjoyed the role-playing and learned a lot by observing their peers using MI. I have heard no complaints about the MI Follow-Up, only good comments!

I see how you used Motivational Interviewing skills with the class. Some were resistant. You handled the situation by asking open questions, reflecting and respecting their autonomy. You gave us affirmations, you did MI with us!
