In my honest opinion, this is great for a beginner. However, a lot could have been done better 1. The instructor talked too slowly, which creates minimal enthusiasm to learn. 2. The instructor's screen is too far/small, many times I struggled to see what is being displayed. He could have zoomed in more. 3. While this is not necessarily down to him, it is worth mentioning that the version of the ACL software is no longer supported by Diligent

The content covered was good for a beginners course. I had to rate it a three because of the slow pace of speech. Personally, this made it harder for me to stay alert and follow.
