Learn with Suzannah Lipscomb

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.

I enjoyed every minute of this course. There was enough time between each question and answer session to cover the videos and reading. And having access to the course materials for another few months means that I will be able to look at some of the optional reading and re-engage with fellow classmates through the Tudor Nerd Collective.

Excellent

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.

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and well researched course that offers her personal insights and thoughts on the topic, the opportunity to view historical documents and a reading list to explore the subject should you wish.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!!!

This course was excellent. Thank you so much!

I loved this course from beginning to end. A perfect pitch to have a light touch or a deep dive into a very niche subject within a subject, this course was both enlightening and engaging. It somehow enabled the content to widen my scope of historical knowledge at the same time as focus it. A truly wonderful experience. Fingers crossed for more courses! Engaging, thought provoking and entertaining.

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!!

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.

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.
