Love Belinda. She is a great teacher and very helpful for a novice and more experienced alike. Easy (???) to follow course outline even when you don't know the subject.

This course builds on the Essentials course very well. I found it most useful after using the knowledge from the essentials course for a while first. It's fast-paced and covers a lot of ground - but much of it is about things I now know I want to use on my site. Belinda - the instructor - is expert and a patient, very capable teacher.
