Great course. Well structured, paced and I feel far more confident using this software now then I did back in school when I was learning. And the guy doing the voice over really is great at what he does. I will probably do the course again and look at what other courses this instructor provides. Great quality and well worth the cost.

Every section has been well discussed in the course. It's definitely easy to understand. But I hope all activities sent was reviewed because, for some, it's still a basis for improvement.
Overall, it's a course worth to recommend!!!
