Clear and concise instruction
I bought this course looking for something more than just another color theory presentation and I was very pleased with the entire presentation. Instruction was very clear and concise. Excellent video of the process. Clear examples. Guidebook was complete and matched the course.

The teacher was great but I could t return to the earlier episodes to review them. I kept getting skipped to Lesson 6 because I had already watched the other lessons. I kept pressing the back arrows, but it kept skipping to episode 6.
