Yes, I am still on it. She is taking it at a beginner level and she explains very well.

It was pretty good course, instructions to the point. Even though the older version of Blender is used throughout the course and I had to google quite lot of stuff up, I got pretty good picture on what's what in a very short time. Unfortunately, last lessons on making of human character, which I was really looking forward to, are all about external tool which doesn't seem to work with the newest Blender, or if it does, lots of extra research is required. Maybe it's time to update? And yeah, not full course here, just the Section 1: Introduction. Overall though, I am pretty happy with what I learned in very short time.
