Very useful course, I will return to it many times :)
Far too simplistic to be useful.
Short and to the point, I found more information about composition here than I have elsewhere.
Honestly, after having paid the same for courses that I have spent weeks, even months on and then had to go back for reviews - and some I haven't even finished yet but fully intend to - I wish I had paid more attention to the length of this course than the ratings it had.

Though the instructor seems knowledgeable I feel I could have received the same instruction on many other sites for free.
Concise and highly useful
