This course is… not good. I have no doubt that Mr. Vilppu has an ENORMOUS amount of information in his head that he has accumulated over many years of study, but he is terrible at communicating any of it.  I understand that he is old, and there is nothing that can be done about that. But perhaps the course could have been edited? Perhaps he could have done the work to create a better presentation?

 

As it stands, a significant portion fo the course’s run-time is him struggling to come up with the words he means to use and jumping from idea to idea, leaving many half finished or not finished at all.

 

Again, I understand that nothing can be done about the fact that Mr. Vilpuu is sharing the experience he has with many years of age. But this is a course that you people are charging money for. The presentation and production is too low to call this professional even if Mr. Vilpuu is a master instructor.
