While the videos are OK the over reliance of nonnative speakers to write the questions, and the need to get peer reviewed essay questions with Rubrics that do not match what is asked, are huge points of failure.

Instructor voice is annoying, and he hissing and breathing heavy, like the guy who used to bug helga on hey arnold and the information is super watered down, and definitley not enough to pass the cc.

Get rid of all discussion posts. I can't get anything done until I wait for someone to randomly find my stupid post. It's ridiculous! If no one does, I can't get my cert!!!
