Learn with Suzannah Lipscomb

I have been intrigued by the Tudor court for over 15 years. Suzannah Lipscomb has been one of my go-historians. This class has taught me more than I ever thought possible. The people of the court came alive, and many concepts could translate to today's world. The live lectures were amazing and covered a variety of topics to answer any Tudor interests. I would recommend this course to any history lover.

I have loved everything about this course. As someone with health issues I would never have access were it not for this amazing format. I also have auditory issues, so cannot thank you enough for ensuring all the videos were captioned! I have learnt so much and found a wonderful community.

I really enjoyed taking this course, it was both fun and interesting. I would definitely recommend this course to other Tudor nerds like myself and I would definitely be interested in taking any courses in the future. I'm giving this course FIVE STARS! It was such a privilege and big opportunity getting to talk with Suzannah Lipscomb and to be taught by one of my favorite historians.

Thank you once again for the wonderful course you put together for us. I've been crazy about the Tudors for many years, and despite thinking I knew a lot, each module taught me something new. The course was carefully planned and prepared, reflecting your obvious passion for the subject. This dedication shone through in every aspect of the material. Your passion and dedication are very inspiring. I particularly enjoyed working with the primary sources and found your informative videos a highlight. Starting this September, I'll be teaching a course on English History, and I cannot wait to incorporate as much of the knowledge I gained here as possible. Thank you again, and I look forward to attending your next course.

Very interesting and engaging. Suzannah is down to earth and approachable, she's a fountain of Tudor knowledge. And the chance to be part of the Tudor Collective with other Nerds is fantastic; only bad thing I never wanted this course to end ! Looking forward to enrolling on Suzannah's next course!

Have you ever sat watching a good historical document and wished you could ask the presenter more questions about the topic? Suzannah Lipscomb has made this possible with her online course Henry VIII:The Making of a Tyrant. This four-month course is filled with detailed information that Suzannah Lipscomb has put together from her extensive research on this topic. Through course videos, excepts from documents, and bi weekly Zoom sessions with fellow “Tudor Nerds”, Suzannah Lipscomb takes the experience of learning history to a higher level. This course is a must for the Tudor historian.

Professor Lipscomb guides her students into fascinating depths of study, offering a range of access points, from ample primary source materials to fascinating and easily accessible videos. I’ve learned a great deal - much more than I imagined possible ~ and have loved every bit of it. Dr. Lipscomb also created a truly lovely learning community in the Tudor Nerd Collective, underscoring her generosity as a teacher and historian. I’m greatly looking forward to the next course! Thank you.

I was extremely pleased with the course on Henry VIII that I recently attended. The group dynamic was excellent, with everyone showing great enthusiasm and engagement. The professor was truly phenomenal—her depth of knowledge, teaching style, and passion for the subject made the experience both enriching and enjoyable. The discussions were insightful, and the course exceeded my expectations in every way.

This course has been amazing - a once in a lifetime experience. I have learned so much and mostly have learned the value of original documents and how to view history like a professional historian. I have been so impressed by the generosity and kindness of Suzannah in making information available to all of us and in kindly and thoughtfully responding to all of our questions in the zoom sessions. Suzannah, your generosity and kindness and enthusiasm for history is nothing short of amazing and inspiring. Thank you so much! I will miss this course, but look forward to the next one!!

A totally absorbing, interesting and yet fun way to delve into the murky world of Henry VIII. Covering the politics, religion and intrigue of one of England's most famous monarchs. Highly recommended.

Professor Lipscomb has put together a fascinating and well researched course that offers her personal insights and thoughts on the topic, the opportunity to view historical documents and a reading list to explore the subject should you wish. There was time to meet as a group and discuss personal thoughts or ask questions to Prof Lipscomb along with the Tudor Nerd community group. The course has enabled me to look beyond, through and around Henry in a way I had not considered so much. I feel I have learned so much about the social and political background as well as HR's upbringing and personality. And yes, he was a tyrant in my opinion!!!

Really wonderful course, very glad I signed up. So much information and work has gone into this. Thank you so much Suzannah! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
