    I'd never taken an online course before and was nervous. It was simple to navigate and my instructor's feedback was so helpful. My proofreading is faster and more accurate. Great class.

    The course was ok, did not drag out excessively long like some of the other ones ive found has. Geez 100 characters for the review is asking a bit much lol. I am yet to see if and how you get some sort of certificate of completion or something along those lines. Im guessing it will be like all the others and say you get certs etc until you sign up and finish a course , then its all about where the money is at... I have to be at 100 by now... Surely
