Great introduction into the remaining courses. I love that there are different learning methods, ie, audio and reading and that there are quizzes at the end of each to help you digest the information.

This course is well organized and instruction is excellent. Having the ability to return to previous lessons for review is invaluable. being able to work at my own pace is one of my favorite parts.
