My experience with Phrase Academy was outstanding. The Linguist certification path was packed with knowledge that contributes to being successful in this role. Each section is dynamic and its length is just about right, so it doesn’t tire the viewer. I highly recommend it both for beginners and experienced professionals who want to make the most out of this tool.
