We don't put anyone down, be it other programs, teachers or people. This applies to issues with other peers in the Program as well.

Find resolution. It’s the adult and responsible thing to do. If you feel it’s important for us to know, please take screenshots, collect your records of the transactions or communications, and let the Masterclass team by writing [email protected].
