Some practices did not show up on my computer. There needs to be more examples for each point being presented and more additional resources.

It's interesting. I am unsure if the feedbacks that I give or receive is correct. It would be helpful if someone moderates and verifies it.

The course is good, but I think it will be even better if it covers more about the 16 tenses, more punctuation, and capitalization. Thanks!

I would have bought the course, but it was very expensive for me. Because of this I didn't have acess to all content and I could't enjoy.

Good course. I would have liked to do more practice excersises since it is different to analyse sentences than to write my own sentences.

Focused too much on commas. Could have incorporated other grammar elements as well. Nevertheless, a very good, easy-to-follow course.
