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 project only lets you work through the Rhyme Virtual Computer, which is very slow and ruins the experience.

Let me begin by saying the focus of this review falls strictly on the course platform itself, and NOT on the instructor. The only negative comment I have about the course is that it is currently a little dated. In that WordPress has very recently released a major update, I am sure the course creator has not had the chance to update the instructions. That is perfectly understandable and not at all my complaint.

My complaint, however, IS with the platform. To say it is wonky would be putting it nicely. The concept of a split-screen, with workspace on one side and instruction on the other, is interesting and attractive at first blush. The actual execution of this feat, however, is MUCH less attractive. The "hosted" browser window in the split-screen workspace is excruciatingly slooow and unresponsive to commands. Just trying to click around in the space is aggravating enough, but compound that with the minuscule text from the reduced screen size (to fit an entire screen in half the space), and you have enough rocket fuel to launch a laptop right across the room. I know, because I almost had to chase mine more than once.

I do regret that I couldn't even finish this entire guided project. I was actually learning how to build a WordPress website despite the difference between the older WP look and the newer version. But the lagging and sometimes completely unresponsiveness of the workspace area was simply too much for me. I hate that, too, because I really wanted to finish this course and there are a few others I'd like to take that are presented in this same format. Maybe the next one will be different? I'll give another one a try and hope for the best, but you know the definition of insanity...
