"Undoubtedly Dr. Tal is a great missionary and extraordinary teacher, mentor, and coach that I have not come across during my 42 years of professional life.

I am 68 years old and have a lifelong experience of learning, teaching, practicing, and growing, and have not met any teacher or trainer like Dr. Tal. His approach is unmatched and excellent. He himself is an institution, his credibility, vigor, knowledge, and passion to help others are superior and life-changing.

I have no doubt that sooner or later Dr. Tal will be nominated for the Nobel prize. The Happiness Studies course is one of the best in the world. I am a psychotherapist and Happiness Studies course has doubled my success and effectiveness."

"In an effort to repair the damage in my heart, I began a journey to heal. I saw the course and it was a no-brainer- I signed up! The marriage between the lectures and the life journal was masterful. Knowing that it wasn't "homework" but, "me-search" was motivating. I "lived" the lectures, discovered new ways to approach my life and it also reinforced what I had already been doing. Tal was able to teach complex material in a way that was digestible. In fact, it wasn't until now, that I have realized how much I have been taught and how much holistic understanding I have of the material. He is a master and his love for this field is clear. He is humble and human and truly makes the student feel that we are on this journey together and that we are as important as he is to the course. As an alumna, I feel like a partner with HSA. I am excited to continue to grow and take on the challenges ahead as we change the world. Thank you for this gift. I look forward to the future and the adventures to come. The only conflict I graduate with is where to begin first?! I want to do it all- teach at schools, senior homes, seminars, build a happier center etc. I'll take one step at a time and it will unfold. I'm just glad that I have something more to offer our sad world. "
