I really love this course, I can use Muse skillfully after taking this course. Muse is an amazing tool to build a website, but you still need some coding knowledge to perfect building a website.

ENGLISH/POLISH REVIEW Very basic course - I think I could call it a translation Muse's Manual into a video course. That's a bit of what I searched for, but it left me wanting more - there is not much here of website DESIGN, just some 'how to' about basic Muse's tools. Any person understanding how text formating (Paragraph Styles etc.) or importing images work, might not find much new knowledge here. However, lessons are planned well and the content is very understandable. Audio quality would need some polishing though - you can hear constant humming while instructor is talking, and the speech is gated, so it's (hum+speech) or silence. Plus some popfilter for microphone would be useful. If somebody is having difficulties with understanding english speech, I might suggest finding another course. Subtitles here are generated automatically, and some silly words appear (f.e. "asset" written as "asshead"). I don't regret buying at sale price, but I'm not sure if I would buy it another time at full price. This is a good thing to have if you're a beginner. Still, site made throughout the course looks rather like 10-years-old design, not modern website. I know it all depends on the creator and assets, but I found that website rather uninspiring. ___ Kurs bardzo podstawowy - mam wrażenie że jest to po prostu przełożenie instrukcji obsługi programu na video. Nie ukrywam, że czegoś podobnego szukałem, ale jednak pozostaje niedosyt, bo nie ma tutaj prawie nic o projektowaniu stron, a jedynie opis najprostszych działań. Osoby rozumiejące jak działa formatowanie stylów np. w edytorach tekstu, albo wrzucanie obrazków, zbyt dużo nowego tutaj nie znajdą. Lekcje rozsądnie podzielone, a treść dobrze przyswajalna. Jakość audio pozostawia nieco do życzenia - kiedy instruktor mówi, słychać buczenie w tle, a do tego wielokrotnie słychać głoski wybuchowe (a wystarczyłby popfiltr na mikrofon). Jeśli ktoś ma problemy z rozumieniem mówionego angielskiego, poleciłbym na ten moment znaleźć inny kurs - tutaj angielskie napisy "lecą z automatu" i część słów różni się znacząco od wypowiadanych - np. "asset" w napisach jest jako "asshead" ("zasób" jako "dupogłowa"). Kupna po promocyjnej cenie nie żałuję, bo dobry podręcznik na początek. Szkoda tylko że aż tak podstawowy, a strona tworzona w trakcie kursu wygląda jak z pierwszej dekady tego wieku.

Almost finished with this course and I have learned A TON. It was hard for me to believe I could make a website without coding, but this course is doing a great job about teaching the basics without being overwhelming. Definitely enough to dissolve my fear of web design! Kudos to Chad!

Awesome teacher. Very clear and simple to follow. He doesn't overly elaborate his steps. Only a couple of times, I think he forgot to tell us how to get to some of the tools that he is using, but after following his steps for a while, it is so obvious where to get the tools. He makes it so simple to follow. Most importantly, he is very clear in his speech and I can follow him very well. Looking forward to his other classes.
