I’m glad I didn’t pay full price for this. Very, very, short course very sparse information. Seems like this is a clip from a larger course if it is it should be mentioned before purchasing. The instructions are good. This seems more like a sample of a course. I’m very glad I didn’t pay full price because I feel like what I did pay was to much.
