The videos are excellent but the quizzes are unforgivably bad. Many questions are confusing due to badly constructed syntax (not a reading-level issue, as I’m a university-educated native English speaker). "Correct" answers are frequently wrong or misleading, e.g. referencing functions that don't exist. Some questions ask what is the "First" step for a given task then show a list of steps that could be done effectively in any order. The quizzes are so bad that someone who isn't already fluent in Figma would severely struggle to complete the course and will likely be left very confused. I've used Figma professionally for 6 years and even I got 60% on some of these quizzes just because the quality is so bad. I had to brute force my way through by selecting answers one at a time until I happened on the "right" one. There are so many problems across every single module; something has clearly gone severely wrong with the quiz design (Automatic generation? Outsourcing?). I would give five stars if not for this issue.
