At first, before taking the class, I thought, "How hard could it be?" and tried a few things on my own... but after actually taking the course, I realized it's definitely different. Since I signed up without any grand ambitions, my goal was just to be able to use the basics well. However, as I took the lessons, I found myself getting more ambitious and wanting to do even better. I think it was even better because it kept me motivated. Due to my own limitations, I was disappointed that I couldn't complete the video and coding assignments as well as I wanted, but I plan to take my time and follow along again even after the four weeks are over. Thank you so much for giving me immediate and kind feedback on my personal questions.
