The courses are easy to follow and it delivers a very good introduction on the basics and principles of graphic design. A good primer before learning more advanced topics such as how to use certain software or more technical topics. This is a good foundation that helps you understand what makes a design good, then you can move on to how to design.

It's absolutely amazing course for me (absolutely beginners). But, something bothering me, like how you read every sentence and sometimes re-read it twice. I think you can add downloadable documents for your presentation, especially the color theory. Perhaps you could also add a section where you give us an insight into how to design something like a logo or, a flyer. It will be the best course if you add some of those.
