I was initially skeptical about taking an online course, but this experience has exceeded my expectations. The lessons were well-structured, and the instructor was very responsive and supportive.

The instructor gave clear explanations in a way that was understandable. Although, the course isn't up to date which resulted in many things being in different places or no longer existing on the Wordpress site, this was confusing and frustrating at times. Asides from that the course material was very simple, if you already had some knowledge of making websites then its all things that you could figure out just from playing around with it.

Wordpress is simply too hard to use. And, this guide, though helpful, is using a now obsolete format. At least I cannot access it. Wordpress should completely transform or waive the white flag.

The UI shown in the tutorial doesn't match the current WordPress layout.

I found Rhyme difficult to use. Somehow the course told me I was finished before I had a chance to view all the material. Now there is no way to access the videos. I'm frustrated and feel I did not finish the course. The Instructor's videos were basically easy to follow - the part which I could view.

Material out of date. Screen shots do not match Wordpress's current website, procedures are required in Wordpress that are not included in the tutorial.

This material needs to be updated to be consistent Wordpress's current version.

In the introduction there was more details promised than we got in the end. There was no working with colors no working on making own blocks just click and edit.

Course images that are supposed to mirror the Wordpress website are outdated. Make take some effort to find where the new controls are the Rhyme environment.

This course is out of date. The WordPress site is not presented in the manner outlined in this course. It is not possible to follow this course.

Overall the course is very good for beginners. The current WordPress UI is a little bit different, so I wasn't able to match the pace with the instructor. I had to pause the task and figure out things on my own (which is great by the way for self-learning). Everything else is great in this course.

The guided course video need to be updated to be in line with the current version of WordPress that is available. Other than that, very clear course, good for the basics.

Old version of WordPress

Quite out of date at this time. The instructions often do not match the website. I still rated it 3 stars as the effort of figuring out what I was supposed to do unassisted was a valuable learning experience.

Looks like exactly what I want, but it's outdated. Wordpress.com layout is different now.

Difficult to follow as the tutor's voice doesn't flow naturally. Also the instructions for how to create the site in Wordpress are out of date and the steps don't match the tutors screen anymore.

I've used WordPress extensively and decided to take this course as a refresher since it's been years since I've managed sites. I couldn't even get the initial course set up because what I was seeing on my end didn't match what was on the video. Very frustrating.

The material was out of date and made it impossible to follow along. When I ended up googling to find the menus the instructor was talking about, I knew it was time to give up on this one.

This course, in my opinion, should be retired as it is completly outdated; it is impossible to follow given the big differeces the WordPress platform shows today.
