Our Verdict
Having delved into the course material and experienced the teaching style firsthand, one can appreciate why it has garnered a strong 4.4-star rating from over 6000 subscribers. Offering thorough insights across an extensive array of Word applications—beyond basic user level training—the expert instructor succeeds in making complex features accessible, even for learners with limited technical backgrounds (kudos to the clear language and effective use of metaphors). That said, there's always room for improvement: occasional rambling can be distracting, and subtitle quality should be consistently high to cater effectively to an international audience. Additionally, while it's commendable that the course covers multiple Word versions, pointing out areas where certain features diverge (like in Office 365) would further boost its overall value—something worth considering during future updates.
