Amazing

If this costed money, I wouldn’t give it five stars. If you look you might be able to find something like this on YouYube. I say might because these are teached very well.

For free, this is GREAT. Apply yourself to these, and you’ll learn a lot. They do a good job of breaking down what sounds and looks quite complicated into its individual parts, making it as easy as it can be to learn.

Overall fantastic.
