Instructor is not good

The information in this class is really mismanaged. When presenting math and policy, state them first, and then allow students to work through how to apply them. What I marveled at through the two modules I took before I gave up is how much effort it takes to screw up the presentation of something as linear as equations, rules and procedure. Present cheat sheet for printing at the beginning of the course and then give us problems to work through. I spent way too much time guessing at obscure nuances through the quizzes.

The added AI "students" in the class and added "trying to be funny" parts make these videos so much longer than they need to be. So much so that I am not going to even take the next course because it is the same professor and I saw how many and how long the videos are. It was brutal to get through and to try to stay interested.

The instructor is nice, but this course is NOT suitable for beginners. The prior knowledge needed to succeed in this course is not covered, and the homework quizzes are extremely challenging and filled with trick questions and uses terminology that is not known to beginners.
