So far I really like the course. I like that it's step by step because I tried learning it on my own and it didn't work for me.

This is a fundamental basic course and as such covered enough material to get an iMovie up and running. The instructor's Irish accent did play havoc with the computer-generated transcript, however.

Yes! A good match. It took me a long time to sort out whether to download photos from i cloud and how to import into i movies, but I got there in the end, I think!

You need to slow down a little in terms of how to get your videos, resources, etc. Also use of the "R" key is not clear.

Yes, I liked to pace of the course. I could go back and see the lessons as many times as I wanted. What would really be nict is as if I could download the video and have it on my desktop to help me with my project.

No it has not been a good match so far. The teacher's spelling and grammar was sloppy and rife with errors, which gave this course an unprofessional quality. I don't feel as though I have learned anything useful..so far. Let's see how I do in section 3.

There is a quite few scopes for improvements, like clearer voice, avoiding back & forth navigations etc.
