“This is a great course and a well-informed teacher. I would recommend this course to anyone who has frequent need of a computer either at work or home. The writing was both informative and easy to read and the instructions were clear. The most beneficial portion of the course to me were the various websites given and the descriptions and analysis offered of each one. I will enjoy using this information in a number of areas.”
