What are your favorite tier 1 AL modules (as a DM)?

[Kevtron]

I've got a few days off in the next couple weeks, and since finding a game that matches my time zone is tough to join, I figured I'd go for the Bender method and make my own (blackjack and hookers optional). I'm a pretty new player, and very new DM, but figured there is no better way to learn than to do, so would like to run a couple low level AL modules online for fun, practice, and as an added bonus of getting some DM experience to apply to an AL character that I might start next season.

But there are SOOOO many AL modules out there, that it's really hard to know what to pick. So what are your favorite (low level, tier 1, to keep it simple) to play, and or to run as a DM? I'm willing to drop a few bucks on a couple good ones since I could always run them later as well as fun one-shots for my group, so anything is ok.

NB: I plan to run them through Discord only, as I don't want to set up Roll20 or FG. So things that can be run via Theatre of the Mind would be preferable.

Wow. That one gives a +1 cloak for a level one module. That seems crazy strong!

I really enjoy 03-01 Harried in Hillsfar. It's my favorite little adventure to introduce new players to the game.

Play more before you run would be the best kind of doing to learn by, but if you have essentially disposeable players available, why not?

If you're not running a stable group, Defiance in Phlan can be pretty easy to deal with, it's a number of relatively disconnected episodes, so you can run with different players or characters in different sesssions. One of the few I enjoyed playing in, myself, was Sokol Keep...

I liked In Volo's Wake. It takes place after LMoP and has a few small quests (1-2 hours each) around Phandalin that tie together. I have not played too many though.
