    I arrived at the class after 6:15, but felt like I didn't miss much. The proficiency level of students varied - so there were a host of questions some more fundamental than others. There was one particular student who dominated the class with basic questions that could have been asked at the end of class, but the instructor never gave her the option. Perhaps, a simple proficiency level quiz would be helpful to prospective attendees seeking for classes.

    The course went over a lot of basics for beginners. I would definitly recommend it for anybody just starting out and even people with some experience. I have been working with wordpress for years and was able to pick up a few new things that I didn't know. Also the instructor was great, explained things well, patiently answered all questions and provided contact information for followup and additional resources.
