"As a co-leader, I found that being involved as an assistant planner, preparer and secretary made the course much more interesting and valuable to me. I feel that this team approach has advantages in some of the courses."

| " I have had the privilege of leading eight A.L.L. study groups. Each one was very rewarding - especially the class discussions and reports by participants. Also, leading these groups motivated me to investigate more deeply some areas of science in which I am interested. So they were learning experiences for me as well as for the participants." | Frank Trerise |
| "A.L.L. offers a near perfect learning opportunity to come together with people who love to learn and share interests, but without the judgement and assessment often attached to the traditional classroom." | Helen Fountaine |
