Good Basic understanding. Some of the videos could use editing, i.e. video masking words and cut out mistakes. Would be super helpful to include copies of the slides as additional resources and more activities / practice questions.

I am starting a business, and so I have to figure out how to manage the accounts. And I have tried over and over again, using so many different courses, and it never made sense. I thought I was a lost cause. But she actually breaks it all down, and now I think I am finally getting it. I am so so so grateful. Best money ever spent! Thank you!!!! If you are stuck like me, try this because if I can get it, you just might too. It's also really fast. I just started taking it earlier this evening, and I'm already almost done. Also, the instructor is really friendly and has a cute voice. So yeah, oh my gosh, I am just so thankful and relieved.
